Description

This intriguing beauty had me baffled as to its origin, but I have finally settled for India but probably made for the Persian market. Woven on a fuchsia silk damask background, the teardrop medallion surround by flowers and birds is very much in the Persian decorative style. Note too the flowing movement of the flowers and tendrils in the border on the same fuchsia background, that completes the delightful composition. The spacing is so elegant and restrained, and the little birds perched on the tip of the flowers is a lovely touch. Ideal for the wall or table. Very good condition. Lined.

Date of Manufacture

Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs has dated this Antique Silk Embroidery to the 1870s.

FAQs

Nineteenth-century Indian silk embroidery is characterised by intricate hand-stitched floral and geometric motifs, often utilising fine silk threads on a vibrant dyed silk or cotton ground, reflecting the rich textile heritage of the region.

These pieces traditionally employ hand-spun silk yarns for both the ground fabric and the embroidery work, frequently dyed using natural pigments derived from plants and minerals.

Authentication involves examining the consistency of hand-spun threads, the presence of natural dyes under microscopic analysis, traditional stitch techniques such as chain or satin stitch, and natural ageing characteristics of the fibres.

An antique textile can be mounted tension-free behind UV-filtering conservation glass or professionally framed to serve as a striking focal point on a neutral wall.

Preservation requires framing away from direct sunlight in a climate-controlled environment with stable humidity levels to prevent the degradation of fragile silk fibres.
