Description: This silk embroidery, a stunning representation of 19th-century design, showcases a wealth of unique features. The intricate detail, featuring exquisite flowers and a bird, is set against a matte mauve background, creating a piece that would undoubtedly elevate any living space. A little more information about the "forbidden stitch": At one time, the forbidden stitch was considered to be named as a result of how difficult it was to work, and it caused the needleworker to go blind. However, most textile historians believe the name comes from the Forbidden City. From the 1400s to the 1900s - the Emperors of China lived in the Forbidden City, and the Forbidden Stitch was considered to be only for the Emperor and not for anyone else. It wasn't supposed to leave the Forbidden City. (But tell someone they can't have it - well, everyone wants it!)
