Antique Figural and Pastoral French Needlepoint Fragment is a Petit Throw Pillow, Down and Feather Fill c.1825-35 Slight reflective surface on thicker/harderLate 18th to earliest 19th century French needlepoint, likely originally an upholstery salvage from the back of a chair, and my bet would be late 18th century from subject and type of stitches made up into a decorator throw pillow. This one is rather simple, and you might decide you want French passementerie trim or braid to frame it in (sew on by hand it's simple), or even just tassels on the corners. This one is a panel 11" square and pillow depth
