Pheasant Embroidery

19th century
Description

A very decorative nineteenth century piece of embroidery work, featuring a pair of pheasants.

Would benefit from some light restoration and a stronger frame, however we feel it is as equally charming as it is.

In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Silk embroidery depicting avian and floral motifs developed extensively in East Asia and became highly prized across Europe from the 18th century onward as part of the Chinoiserie movement in decorative arts.

Historically, craftsmen utilized hand-spun silk threads and couched metallic wires stitched onto a woven silk satin, linen, or cotton base cloth, often mounted within wooden frames.

Authentic period needlework displays slight structural irregularities in hand-stitching, slight color oxidation or fading on exposed areas, and natural organic backing fibers rather than uniform synthetic materials.

Mount the framed piece against neutral or deeply toned walls, pairing it with clean-lined furniture to allow the intricate embroidery textures and historic motifs to serve as an accent feature.

Display the embroidery away from direct sunlight and heat sources, glaze it with UV-filtering glass, and consult a professional textile conservator rather than attempting surface washing.
