A truly beautiful vintage hand-embroidered wall clock from Sweden, in flawless condition — the kind of piece that represents dozens of hours of patient, skilled handwork.
Every single motif on this piece — the scrolling acanthus leaves, the daisies, the two facing birds, the central flower — was stitched by hand, one cross at a time, onto the rich brown wool needlepoint background. This kind of large-format, densely worked folk art embroidery took the original maker weeks of careful, dedicated work to complete; it is a genuine textile art piece, not a mass-produced decoration, and pieces of this scale and density rarely surface today. Cream Roman numeral clock markers frame the center, with brass-tone clock hands.
The original clock mechanism has been replaced with a new quartz movement, so the clock keeps accurate time and is fully functional. Runs on one AA battery (not included).
Condition: Flawless vintage condition — the embroidery is fully intact, with vivid, unfaded colors throughout, a testament to the quality of the original handwork and materials.
