SPECTACULAR AND RATHER RARE FLORAL COTTON PELMET ca. 1785

This is a fantastic piece of late 18th century floral cotton with wonderfully fresh glowing colors.

Finely quilted and backed in cream cotton.

It is in the style of Jean Pillement, who worked near Lyon, and may well be by him. He was fond of parasol shaped flowers.

Condition: Excellent. The backing has some age marks with are not intrusive, and I feel this piece must have been well away from daylight and use.

Measurements: 50” across x 27” deep.

Price USD $1000.-
