A rare early 17th century spot motif sampler. Worked on fine linen with polychrome silks, in minute stitches, in an array of motifs; a Tudor rose, butterfly, caterpillar and snail as a top border and many complex geometric motifs below, some worked in silver or gold thread with fine couching effects, or small drawn thread elements creating a floral lacey effect, all created by a highly skilled female embroiderer of the day, length 49.5cm x 18.5cm wide. Condition: the fine linen backing has discoloured over nearly 400 years and has two small damaged areas, but the embroidery is unaffected by this. The silver and gold thread have tarnished a little, which is to be expected, but the colours of the polychrome silks are still strong. The frame is later with damage to a corner.
