Blossoms in Thread

This vintage embroidered patch was carefully collected from Miao communities, where it was hand-stitched decades ago for traditional garments and ceremonial use. Vivid pink florals bloom across a dark ground, their satin stitches still carrying a striking sheen softened slightly by time. Framed in black cotton fabric, it’s ready to be displayed as art, cherished as a collector’s piece, or integrated into your own textile projects.

The embroidery itself measures 6” x 6 ¾”, while the full piece with its fabric frame extends to 11 ¾” x 12 ¾”.
