Description
A superb sabre-cut velvet, Lyon, late 19th century, cream-coloured satin printed on the warp and hand-shaved, featuring a design in over fifteen colours depicting a large bouquet of lifelike flowers, including dahlias, hollyhocks, delphiniums and daisies.
Stretched on a frame (slight, even sun-fading, a few faint marks), 195 x 113 cm.
Unusual in its dimensions, this panel of sabre velvet is likely one of the technical masterpieces that the great Lyon-based manufacturers displayed at major international exhibitions.
