This exceptional 19th century American quilt, hand-stitched in Pennsylvania during the late 1800s, is a striking example of historic textile artistry distinguished by its rare and highly decorative color palette. The front features bold yellow ground panels adorned with brown block floral motifs, framed by an elegant draped tassel border that lends architectural rhythm and visual sophistication to the overall composition.
Adding to its rarity and appeal, the quilt is double-sided, with a vibrant yellow and red bar-patterned backing that offers a completely different decorative presentation. This dual-sided construction makes the quilt especially versatile, allowing it to be styled and displayed in multiple ways.
Each section of the quilt was constructed from individually cut pieces and meticulously hand-stitched, reflecting the extraordinary patience, skill, and dedication of its maker. Quilts of this caliber from the 19th and early 20th centuries are increasingly collectible, valued for their craftsmanship, regional character, and artistic presence.
Delicate yet visually commanding, this antique quilt is ideally suited for display as a refined bed covering or as a wall-hung textile or tapestry.
