PETITE POINT FLORAL URN,
circa 1740
English
This very finely stitched petit point canvaswork picture of a blue and white
urn burgeoning with naturalistic flowers (carnations, tulips, periwinkles,
daisies, chrysanthemums) was probably made as a chair back, or a fire screen. It
is signed with the initials "MC". It has been professionally cleaned and
conserved by Frances Faile, and is museum mounted within a new period style
frame. The condition is excellent, as well as the color. 24-1/4"x21", $4200.
