This beautiful and rare mid-19th century American coverlet from Pennsylvania dates to the 1840s and features the woven signature of the weaver, Elizabeth Yohe, in the corner—an exceptional and personal detail prized by collectors.

Woven on a Jacquard loom, this four-color coverlet has a warm pale yellow background with alternating rows of bold navy blue and red floral heads, accented by green leaves. The intricate floral motifs and vibrant natural dyes reflect the artistry of early American textile craftsmanship.

During the early to mid-1800s, Jacquard coverlets became highly popular for their beauty and durability. The ability to personalize them with names made them treasured family heirlooms. This signed piece is not only a testament to early American weaving traditions but also a rare example of a named female artisan from the period.

A true gem of American folk textile art.
