Vintage Silk Embroidery Table Topper, Pansies

TAB105

This is a lovely, linen doily or table topper.  It has an estimated date of 1930.  It is hand worked with silk embroidery in a pansy design on ecru linen.  The pansies are shades of purple and yellow.  The work is incredibly well executed and includes padded, satin stitch.  It measures approximately 13″ in diameter.  Condition is excellent, with a pale brown line near the purple flower on the outer edge.  This is insignificant and barely noticeable.  This is a wonderful example of vintage silk embroidery, worthy of framing.
