This mid‑century example depicts a classic English country cottage - whitewashed walls, thatched roof, and a garden in bloom - worked entirely by hand in richly coloured wools. The evenness of the stitching and the harmonious palette speak to the skill and patience of its maker. Visual Details:- Our photographs show the fine texture of the wool stitches, the subtle shading in the foliage, and the crisp outlines of the cottage’s windows and door. The panel’s proportions make it a striking wall piece, while the close‑up images form an essential part of the condition report for complete purchasing confidence. Styling Suggestions:- Ideal for adding warmth and character to a sitting room, hallway, or bedroom, this embroidery pairs beautifully with cottage‑style interiors, vintage textiles, or as a soft counterpoint to more contemporary décor. Its nostalgic charm makes it equally suited to a country home or an urban space in need of a rural touch.
