Circa: 1880's
Size: Frame Measurements: Height - 18” Width - 22 ˝”
This is a large, charming, and captivating antique Victorian "Home Sweet Home" punch paper motto. It has exquisite details throughout. Beginning with the lettering…The stitching is in beautiful vibrant shades of pinks and reds and the first letter of each word is outlined in a very shapely manner in a lovely and striking shade of green. The scene is fantastic with extremely elaborate stitching throughout. The home is large and has a wonderful deep red stitch framing it. The fancy Victorian gazebo in the foreground is so pretty and detailed. The tree on the right has a whimsical quality, as do all of the flowers throughout the sampler. The lawn area encompasses pleasing and interesting Victorian landscape. This punch paper is full of vibrant colors and retains the original decorative foil behind the punch paper, giving the piece a wonderful glisteny effect! The wood frame is original to the piece. It has a very decorative burl wood veneer that really highlights the punch paper within. The punch paper and frame are in excellent original condition. There is only one extremely, very small piece of unstitched punch paper that is missing in the right edge near the tree. This piece retains the original glass, wood backing, and wire hanger. It is evident that the person that made this wonderful antique punch paper motto was very skilled and took great pride in her work. It’s a real gem! Circa 1880’s. |
