1876. 77x83.

A beautiful and historic piece as this was most likely made for the Centennial. Historians attribute this coverlet to Phillip Allabach in Michigan, USA. It is red and natural is a heavier wool than similar pieces by this producer. There is a medallion in the center and a nice combination of flowers and geometrics both in the center and on the border. The four eagles with arrows are at the corners of the main block. There is self-fringe on the sides and applied fringe on the bottom. This coverlet is a single panel, rather than double, as most others are. There are a holes from wear. Condition is very good.
