Item Details.
Dating from the 18th century and most probably French, this wonderful panel with very fine wool embroidery on a soft cotton ground. Possibly made as part of a set of bedhangings, or perhaps a Pelmet to hang above a window.

The ground textile is a fine hand loomed cotton in cream which has been embroidered with fine wools in a beautiful rococo design. The central heraldic monogram is surrounded by a beribboned garland of flowers and is flanked on either side by decorative urns of flowers with pretty striped foliage.

Considering this embroidery’s age, the colours are still vibrant and don’t seem to have suffered from fading over the years. there are some losses, and rubs to the surface of the embroidery and some marks to the ground cloth which a specialist may be able to remove.

This unique embroidery deserves to be stretched and mounted, a service we are happy to offer from our specialist textile conservation studio. Please ask us for details and a quote.

Condition.
Cosidering this embroidery’s age, the colours are still really vibrant and don’t seem to have suffered from fading over the years and its in remarkable condition for an antique textile of this era. There are some small areas of missing stitching/rubs and the ground cloth has some marks which may be improved with specialist cleaning. The whole panel has an overall patina of age which you would expect from an antique textile dating from this era.
