AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Piece of high decorative value dated around 1920 (Art Deco period), crafted entirely by hand as a mark of distinction for the trousseau of the early 20th century.
Material and design: Made in noble black silk satin with a reddish-toned backing for contrast. In the center is a delicate bouquet of lilacs hand-painted with fine nuances in mauve, violet, pink and white.
Embroidery detail: It is framed by a refined perimeter border embroidered with sinuous lines, bows in the corners, and small bouquets executed by hand with thread using chain stitch and lazy daisy stitch.
Dimensions and condition: [Indicate approx 50x40 cm]. Excellent state of preservation for its age, with vivid colors and the expected wear of a centennial piece.
