Antique needlework bell pull featuring a gorgeous Greek key pattern done in cream, red and black hues. The meandering Greek key pattern was hand done in tiny clear beads giving it a sparkly effect. Smack dab in the center is the date "1791" - likely a patriotic reference to the ratification of the Bill of Rights. The piece itself is giving me more of an early 20th century vibe, and the bamboo hardware could be a more recent addition. I removed the original pull because it is made of a problematic substance.

I aim to please, and describe every item to the best of my ability. But please note that my vintage items often received frequent use back in their day, so may show visible signs of wear and age. Personally, I wouldn't have it any other way, as I treasure those marks of the past.
