Antique Needlepoint Sampler Pictorial Framed Age 12 in 1794 Eliza Ayers: $3500.00
This is an early 18th century needlepoint / embroidery sampler created by Eliza Ayers. It reads \"Eliza Ayers her sampler wrought in the 12 year of her age 1794\" It has the normal alphabet and numerals, but also absolutely stunning and colorful pictures of birds, plants, and flower pot, among other items. Outside frame measures 17.5w x 13.5h. Glass measures 16.5w x 12.5h.Don\'t know if the frame is original? This piece belonged to my Grandfather and passed down from my late Father so not able to pinpoint its origin. I don\'t know a lot about these samplers, but the condition appears to be excellent. I don\'t see any holes or loss of threads. There may be one stain to the right of the flower pot, but I don\'t know for sure.
