Beautiful antique hand-appliquéd and hand-quilted floral quilt dating approximately 1880–1920.
This striking folk-art quilt features repeated pink floral motifs with green stems and leaves set within large white on-point diamonds. The quilt showcases exceptional hand quilting with an intricate floral and vine quilting pattern throughout the white ground.
Constructed entirely by hand, the craftsmanship displayed and artistry of late Victorian-era needlework are remarkable. Original period fabrics, detailed appliqué work, and dense hand quilting give the piece wonderful texture and visual depth.
Condition is very good antique condition with expected age-related wear, including minor fabric loss and scattered fraying to a few appliqué petals. The hand quilting remains crisp and clearly visible.
A beautiful example of American folk art textile history and an exceptional display piece for collectors of antique quilts.
