Framed vintage floral embroidery
Beautiful hand-embroidered floral framed work, exquisite workmanship. Looks like wool on a linen cloth ground.
In solid vintage oak frame which is showing its age, a little wear & tear; and behind glass.
I suspect this was once a fire-screen (see photos of the reverse) which has been adapted to hang on the wall; its quite heavy but solid and ready to hang up.
55h x 65w cm. Weighs about 6kg.
Reluctantly selling as its been in storage for years, no longer fits my house.
Pick-up only with cash please, Verrans end of Birkdale.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
