REDUCED Spectacular and Unique! Antique Needlepoint Hunt Scene

Fine Art : Antique : Needlepoint : Fox Hunt

 

I remember when my mother received this as a gift from her cousin, Charles ("Choo-Choo") Kaufman, who was an international diamond and antique broker. That was over 50 years ago, and he patiently and proudly explained that it was an antique back then. I am not an expert in tapestries, needlework and the like, but Cousin Charlie was. Both he and my mother have both passed away some years ago. Framed, it measures 33 and 1/2 inches by 27 and 1/2 inches. The part of the needlepoint that is seen is 29 and 1/2 inches by 23 and 1/2 inches. We have never taken it out of its frame. I have consulted with an antique dealer acquaintance who felt this is a low price. You are welcome to have your own expert appraise it at my home. This piece will not be sent on approval because of its history. I can contact an appraiser to confirm value and age, but the buyer will pay for the appraisal.
