Fine Antique English Needlepoint Carpet

About the Item

A large antique English needlepoint carpet decorated by the so-called 'album' pattern, composed of square compartments each containing a different pattern. This was the traditional way of weaving needlepoints, as the various embroiderers would each create an individual design based on the album of patterns that was available within the family.
