Three Red Pots 1841

An Antique Sampler Reproduction

This beautiful reproduction sampler with a large Algerian Eye upper border in various shades of reds, golds and greens features symmetrically oversized red pots as the highlight. Young Sylvia misspelled her own first name and used an upside down letter adding to the charm of this antique sampler. Obtained from an antique 
dealer who bought it at an auction near Cornwall, England, other than the stitcher’s name, Sylvia Trigg and the date, February 4th, 1841, there was no provenance or history on the sampler.
