Framed silk embroidery "Needlework study of Golden Pagoda in Kyoto, Japan c.1890"

By dazmynj, 9 March, 2014
Description

This framed needlework was found in a seized storage unit. It is absolutely gorgeous. There is a tag, containing a description, attached to the back of it from an Antique shop. I tried to contact the Antique shop but they are no longer in business. Frame included it measures about 18"x12". The colors have held up very well if it is as old as the tag says. There are no flaws or defects in the actual embroidery that I can see. It looks like silk but I'm not sure. 

The only information I have on this piece is included on the card. See pictures for details.
