Description: Beautiful JACOBEAN STYLE FLOWERS in a Pot HANDHOOKED BELL PULL WALL HANGING 13" W x 39" L Vibrant colors (blues, pinks, purples and gray) with a gorgeous blue/green background ... flowers in a pot worked on burlap (I am no expert on any of this.) Backing is a satin solid, coordinating color, that has been neatly handstitched to the front. Dark wood dowels at top and bottom. Please note in the photos any discoloration (faded looking) is only from the outdoor lighting. There is no fading. No broken stitches, no soiling. No issues.Impeccably hand crafted by Ann Nevitt (see below) in 1998. She was 66. It is assumed she used the finest quality fabrics, materials, etc. We purchased a good many of her art creations at her estate and will be listing them over time, as I am able to let go, as soon as I am done admiring her beautiful artwork. I have kept my favorites for now and will most likely be listing them in the future, as I sadly have no place to really display them as they so deserve. These are works of art and deserve a place of prominence where they are loved and appreciated. All are "signed" on the back with information about the piece. *** A little bit about Ann***Ann Lucille Nevitt was born in 1922. She was the widow of the late Reverend Canon Benjamin W.
