Framed Petit Point Floral Tapestry

This is a framed textile artwork measuring 30cm x 36cm, featuring a delicate floral arrangement rendered in petit point or needlepoint tapestry. The central composition depicts a woven basket filled with white lilies of the valley and blue-purple violets, accented by a blue ribbon bow at the handle. Beside the basket sits a smaller cluster of violets. The palette consists of soft greens, cream, powder blue, and deeper violet tones against a pale, neutral background. The tapestry appears to be executed with fine woolen or silk threads, indicating high-quality craftsmanship and meticulous detail. The artwork is housed in a substantial, ornate gilded frame with deep rococo-style scrollwork and floral relief patterns. The frame exhibits a rich gold patina with some dark antiquing in the recessed areas to enhance the dimensional carving. While the textile shows some natural softening of colors consistent with vintage age (likely mid-20th century), it appears well-preserved under glass. The overall presentation reflects a mid-century traditional style, often found in Victorian-inspired interior decor.
