One of the best of the best! Antique 1850s album appliqué with vessel floral border detail in red and green on a cream background.
Tranto feathered vines separate the beautiful blocks
Such amazing detail
this Quilt measures 82 x 80”
It is masterfully hand appliquéd with a tiny button hole stitch, and then hand quilted at an amazing 14 stitches per inch. The hand work is just beyond beautiful and so precise.
The flaws are very few, most prominently there is age/tan spotting and light foxing(this is a very light tan age spotting from long-term storage) The photos depict the worst examples of the age spotting, but there is more that was not photographed.
There is one tiny tear in a red flower, see photo
Overall, this Quilt displays beautifully and is an excellent example of early American trapunto, appliqué and hand quilting.
Unfortunately, we do not have provenance as this one was collected in Arizona without any history or owner name.
Certainly worthy of the finest collection!
$5950 obo. (please note shipping may be delayed the week of 9/7/26 due to traveling.)
