Silk Swallowtail Stumpwork Butterfly

£180.00

This unique butterfly is hand embroidered with traditional stump-work techniques using my own studio hand-dyed, hand-painted pure mulberry silk threads. The Swallowtail is an iconic and dramatic butterfly, mounted on a vintage Irish damask linen pad with a hand stitched label. This series is reminiscent of the hay day of Victorian Lepidoptery.

Size of butterfly - 17.5 cm by 15.5cm

Size of mount - 26cm by 20cm
