A very finely worked early 19th Century silk sampler. Depicting a number of spot motifs including wonderful vases of flowers and baskets of fruit. Across the bottom on a lawn of long satin stitch we have two spotty dogs and a pair of stags flanking a central apple tree with a robin amongst the branches. A border pattern of repeated coloured fleur-de lys like flowers are linked by a green stitched line. At the top within an oval panel we have the sewers details MARY C LANGLEY May the second 1820, Aged 12 years. Framed some time ago in a period like hogarth frame by Gough bros of Bognor Regis ( may help identify the sewer.) Size of frame 35 x 36 cm. Condition, I think could be reframed. Great colour but there are a number of areas of damage around the name panel, near the stags at the bottom around the large flower group on the right and small rose on the left. numerous small holes some over stitching around the edge may be just stitched to backing cloth.
