British Sailor's Woolwork with Unusual Border.
Chain Stitch.
Circa 1875.
The unusually designed charming sailor's woolie using a chain stitch depicts a starboard side view of a British two-masted ship entering a harbor with a fort flying a large Union Jack in an early chain stitch. The ship itself flies the red ensign from it stern as well a red banner and a Union Jack from the foremast. The border is most unusual with a framing band surrounding the wool with a series of roses on a cream ground.
The composition and strong color make this a pretty special woolwork.
