  • Details
    This charming mid-century summer coverlet dates to the 1950s and features beautifully hand-embroidered floral basket motifs and graceful scrolling designs. The colors include turquoise blue, sunny yellow, cherry red, and leafy green.

    The central basket medallion and coordinating corner motifs are delicately outlined with hand embroidery, showcasing careful stitch work.

    This is a summer coverlet, meaning it is constructed as a single decorative layer with finished edges, but does not contain batting or a backing layer. It can be used as-is for a lightweight bed covering, layered over a quilt, or repurposed for creative textile projects.

    The coverlet is in excellent vintage condition with no issues noted.
