Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:20166049 | Type/ Features: Embroidery |
An unusual PRINTED Berlin Woolwork chart being a design for a needlepoint Footstool "The Nilsson" a very popular item to stitch in the mid to late 1800's. The chart has been mounted into pale cream colour card ready for framing which has been done very well and has kept the chart in good condition. I purchased this chart many years ago as a collection from a picture framer who dealt in antique prints. This pattern was designed by A.D. Goubaud in Pari...s and London - she frequently designed for 'The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine' which was printed in London in the 19th century. A rare example.
NOTE: THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 19TH CENTURY PRINTED BERLIN WOOLWORK CHART (not a copy of a printed chart)
Details of this chart:Description - Printed design onto grey paper and mounted onto card.Condition - The design area is in good condition, colours are bright and vibrant. There is a feint crease across the width which is magnified in the photo but not noticeable to the naked eye and the four corners are missing (probably when mounted) but these do not interfere with the design grid area. There is slight discolouration near the four corners probably from the paste behind. The mount card is in good condition and can be used for framing. Please study my photos to check condition before bidding.Size - Design grid area - (width x height) 8.5 x 8.75 ins. / 21.5 x 22.5 cmSize - Board Mount - (width x height) 10 x 11 ins. / 25 x 28 cmDate - undated but is mid 19th century
These printed charts were produced in the 19th century and published in the Ladies magazines of the day in London, Berlin and Paris as give-aways and as this type of needlework was popular, these charts helped to sell the magazines. Although these printed charts are of simpler designs, and not of the same quality as the hand-painted variety, they were widely used and saved in collections. They are interesting because they reflect the the popular taste of the readers of the magazines.
