Also Antique Furniture has dated this Crewelwork Paisley Wall Hanging to the 1920s.
The densely embroidered composition is worked in raised wool crewelwork on a woven cotton or linen ground, creating a richly textured surface with excellent depth and colour. The broad decorative border frames the central field of oversized boteh (paisley) motifs, producing a striking design that works equally well displayed as a wall hanging, bed covering, throw or decorative textile.
Pieces of this type are traditionally associated with Kashmiri embroidery and later English decorative arts, reflecting the enduring popularity of the paisley motif during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Their warm natural colours and intricate workmanship continue to suit both traditional and contemporary interiors.
An attractive and decorative embroidered textile with excellent visual impact.
