Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! Please follow us on Instagram, we are @textiletrunk

This stunning piece of embroidery came from a private, French embroidery collection that I was lucky enough to purchase. This is some of the FINEST , tiniest embroidery I've ever seen in my life ~ tiny tiny tiny hand stitches. I can't imagine HOW someone could have embroidered this ~ it's astonishing . it's all hand stitched on the most finely woven cotton and linen blend. The cotton is slightly chintzed . I date this piece to the later 18th century , or perhaps early 19th century, difficult to say. 2 colors , red and blue used on this embroidery, A work of art! I just adore this piece!!! . Ideal for any private or museum collection
