Vintage Framed Floral Still Life Needlepoint Tapestry

This item is a 60cm x 80cm needlepoint tapestry featuring an elaborate floral still life arrangement. The central composition depicts a bouquet of varied flowers, including roses, lilies, and blue larkspur, presented in an ornate classical-style urn resting on a stone plinth. The background consists of architectural motifs, specifically fluted columns or pilasters, rendered in muted shades of brown and tan to create depth. The textile work is framed in a substantial, multi-tiered Gilt-wood or composite frame with intricate scrolling filigree patterns on the outer edge and a smooth green velvet slip or liner on the interior. The color palette of the embroidery is vibrant, using a range of yellows, reds, pinks, and deep blues against a neutral taupe ground. Stylistically, it appears to be a mid-20th-century decorative piece influenced by Baroque floral paintings. The craftsmanship shows consistent tension in the stitching, likely indicating a high-quality hobbyist kit or professional production from the 1960s-1970s. The condition appears fair to good; there is visible light glare on the glass, suggesting the piece is protected, though the frame shows some minor dust accumulation and possible micro-chipping typical of its age. No major fraying or thread loss is immediately visible in the needlework itself.
