19th Century Hand-Stitched Amish Quilt in Forest Green, Burgundy, and Baby Blue

About the Item

An exceptional 19th-century American Amish quilt featuring a striking "Diamond in a Square Trip Around the World" pattern, hand-stitched with precision and care. Originating from the Amish communities of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, this quilt showcases a bold palette of forest green, burgundy, and baby blue — a unique color combination that enhances the geometric movement of the traditional layout. Each piece of fabric was hand-cut and repurposed from materials available at the time, resulting in a utilitarian object elevated to an expression of cultural identity and visual artistry. A superb example of early American craftsmanship, this quilt is both a collector’s item and a compelling piece of textile art for refined interiors.
