Swedish Folk Art Pomegranate Embroidery Tapestry by Edna Nihlén, Sweden 1956
About the Item
A captivating pomegranate tapestry featuring twisted chain stitch embroidery by Edna Nihlén, crafted in Sweden in 1956. This piece showcases four segments, each displaying either four blue pomegranates or three red pomegranates, beautifully arranged to create a striking visual impact.
Complementing the pomegranate motifs are two delicate white and blue flowers adorning the left and right edges of the tapestry. An enchanting fringe, incorporating all the colors used in the tapestry, elegantly frames the outer edges.
On the reverse side, Edna Nihlén, an artist from Skurup in Skåne, has embroidered her name along with the year of creation (1956). This pomegranate design dates back to the 16th and 17th centuries, as documented at Hemslöjdens Samlingar. This can be found at the Digital Museum web page: Hemslojdens Samlingar 021019528314 tacke-i-tvistsom.
This exceptional tapestry is a beautiful piece that will elevate any interior space.
