Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:48649119
Original Description:
Mid/late 19th century wool work c.1870 or slightly later. Worked in wool on even weave gauze, this wool work is completely charming with fine quality stitch work throughout. The scene is a winsome one of a rustic setting with a mother keeping hold of her young son as he strokes the cat standing near his bare feet. The cat is watching over one of her kittens who is eating whilst their sibling plays with a piece of brightly coloured fabric nearby.The small amount of visible gauze around ...the edges of the wool work has overall discolouration consistent with its age and the colours of the wool are good, with some shades not quite as vibrant as when this piece was originally made. There is also a very small area of damage in the upper right quadrant.The last photo is of the reverse of the wool work and shows how the colours would have looked at some point of time. rich the colours were when it was first stitched. As can also be seen from the photographs, the edges of the gauze have been cut at some point of time which has resulted in some minor fraying.  PLEASE NOTE - This is a fairly large piece measuring 25" x 28"
