Needle Point / 12444

Needle Point, 2' 3" x 2' 5", a compact wool tapestry fragment with a soft cream ground and layered neutral and brown floral scrolls. The surface shows fine needlework and moderate loss; areas of fading and frayed edges read as patina. Floral bosses and curling arabesques remain legible, giving the piece a measured, rhythmic composition despite its incomplete outline. This antique rug carries a restrained palette and tactile surface that reveal its age through nuance rather than flourish. Circa 1880 - 1900 The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
