    Description

    I have had a number of these hand painted needlepoint patterns, and love each and every one.  These date from the 1870's or 1880's from Germany.  The Berlin Work pattern is for a pocketbook with floral motif -- roses, violets, and (sorry!) a flower I don't recognize.  Well framed.  Labelled lower right: "Vereinigte Stickmuster - Verl

    Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles.  On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views.

    The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase.
    Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
