Kashmir vintage crewel work (291 x 124cm)

£ 450.00

291 x 124cm // 9ft 6" x 4ft

Uncharacteristically the Kashmir chain stitch in is done on a lime/gold coloured velvet ground rather than onto a typical cambric cloth thus reflecting up the wool embroidery which stands proud.

If would appear not to have been used as a curtain but rather as a hanging and consequently not suffered from fading.

Lined with a fine cotton

First half 20th cent
