Needlepoint has not been examined outside the frame. It appears to have areas of loss at the upper edge, but is otherwise quite nice. Brass appliques appear to be intact and have developed a lovely warm patina. Frame shows minute nicks and scuffs commensurate with age, but is otherwise intact and very attractive. Glass is intact as well. A few minor tears to gallery paper on verso that do not impact the needlepoint imagery. Wired for suspension and ready to display.
