Vintage Floral Crewel Embroidery – Framed Bouquet Needlepoint, 23″ × 19″

Soft rose-pinks, cornflower blues, and meadow greens bloom across this hand-stitched crewel embroidery, capturing an abundant bouquet in a textured pink Jardinière. Satin, stem, and French-knot stitches give the blossoms dimension, while a geometric pulled-thread lattice anchors the arrangement at the base—an elegant nod to 1970s needle-art design.

The linen ground is mounted beneath glass in its original walnut-tone wood frame, ready to bring cottage warmth to a hallway, bedroom, or sun-room gallery wall.
