Tray with white flowers

Antique-Pattern-hand-painted-Berlin-work-counted-thread-work-1800s-needlework264612713450

Heinrich Kuehn, Berlin

Handpainted partial Berlin woolwork pattern on a single sheet. The pattern number has been torn off. White flowers on a background with shades of brown. The completed design is 85x195 but only the left and the middle part are on the pattern. People were supposed to be able to figure out the rest of the pattern, assumed to be the mirror image of the left side. The charts are complete. This type of pattern was used to make (glazed) tea trays in beadwork or wool embroidery. Of course other purposes are not excluded.

Images donated by ebay seller joan10605. Pattern from her grandmother's needlework studio in Manhattan, LaMer's Studio, from 1909-1967, where she taught needlework and did work for musea and famous customers.
