This sampler, created by the young Fanny Lodge in the Victorian period, is in truly wonderful condition .. the colours as bright as the day they were used. It has been in one family since new, and spent the the first hundred years of its life in tissue paper in a drawer. Framed in 1987, it has since hung out of direct light, and thus is remarkably unfaded and undamaged. To find a needlework of this age and in 'as new' condition is extremely rare .. this is a collector's item of museum quality. SIZE: 15.25 x 12.25 inches including the frame. PROVENANCE: In one family since made. Internal Ref: lodge
