About the Item

An exceptional example of 19th-century American textile artistry, this signed four-color Jacquard coverlet originates from Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and is dated 1859. Featuring a striking palette of navy blue, red, ivory, and pale green, the piece is intricately woven with fine detail and craftsmanship. The coverlet is inscribed “Michael Umbarger, Middle Paxton Township Da. Co. 1859 Amos Killinger,” honoring both the recipient and the weaver — a common yet meaningful tradition made possible by the Jacquard loom, which allowed personalization through the intricate weaving process. Woven by hand, this textile exemplifies the popularity and artistry of American coverlets in the mid-1800s, prized both for their functional warmth and decorative value. Whether draped over a bed, displayed as a wall hanging, or styled in a heritage-rich interior, this coverlet brings a unique narrative and historic charm to any refined setting. Perfect for collectors, designers, and decorators seeking rare and storied textiles to elevate traditional or eclectic interiors.

Vintage Hand Woven Indonesian Ikat Textile Panel
Located in Barrington, IL
A striking vintage hand-woven Ikat textile panel from Indonesia, dating to the mid-1900s. This artisanal piece features a bold abstract design, achieved through the meticulous process of warp ikat—a technique in which the threads are selectively tie-dyed before weaving to create complex, interlocking patterns. Woven from natural cotton fibers, this panel likely originates from the Lesser Sunda Islands in eastern Indonesia, possibly from the culturally rich island of Sumba. The intricate craftsmanship and dynamic geometric forms reflect traditional Indonesian textile artistry while offering a timeless, global aesthetic. Ideal for display as wall-mounted tribal art, this textile adds texture, heritage, and warmth to any interior, whether as a centerpiece in modern spaces or a complementary accent in eclectic or traditional décor. A refined collector’s piece for lovers of indigenous craftsmanship and global design.
