Delightful Antique Victorian Mahogany Framed Needlepoint Picture Parrot and Fl

  
The parrot has been worked in chenille with the rest of the picture worked in wool needlepoint. The colours are still quite vibrant but not as strident as they would have been when this was newly created.

This quality piece of needlework has been framed within a good mahogany frame which is also mahogany backed. I suspect it was either a fire guard or from a pole screen originally. Nevertheless, it now makes a very striking picture which would sit well in any period setting. Overall condition is very good.

There is no damage to the needlework. There is a strip all around the edge of the work that is lighter than the rest, possibly from a mount that has now been removed. Worked area measures 64cm x 52cm - overall size is 71cm x 59cm with a depth of 3.5cm.
