A Cotton Boro Panel: Beautiful Composition
$60.00 USD
early twentieth century
59" x 13 1/4", 150 cm x 33.5 cm
This length of cotton boro is composed of three sections of cloth which are hand stitched together.
The light-colored, lightweight cotton top is attached to two dense cotton pieces at the bottom.
The light colored piece seems machine loomed and it is sprayed with faint staining that adds a kind of decoration to it. There are four small blue patches on it.
The bottom quarter of the overall length is made of two pieces of dense, striped cotton, the bottom one being heavily patched: this bottom quarter piece is in beautiful visual contrast to the the rest of the length.
A lovely, artful length of boro cotton.
Beautiful.
