ANTIQUE #SA1198407

43 X 46cm Late 19th Century Greek Island Embroidery, Skyros

£5,000    $6,701    €5,857
The cockerel is an Ancient Greek symbol of strength and fertility. Here is a beautifully drawn and colourful, silk embroidery that was probably a cushion cover made for ceremonial purposes. The silk stitches change colour before your eyes as you move around it in a fascinating manner. A truly rare and exciting collectors item.
