Victorian Diamonds
Unidentified Quilt Maker
Circa 1900
43 x 51 inches
Origin Unknown; Found in New York
Excellent Condition ~ not always the case with these turn-of-the-20th-century silk quilts. Entirely intact.
Considering this a "Diamonds" quilt rather than a Crazy ~ the Crazy elements within the Diamonds are just that ... elements.
The hand embroidery is superb, and the printed and textured (and solid) fabrics make for a rich and colorful small textile. The hand painted (oil paint) images are also fully intact!
Ready to hang ~ a perfect size for the right wall!
