Much better in person, this one made more purely happy to discover—what a lot of love went into making this three-cat bookmark, done with very small needlepoint stitches. The perfect soft green to set off the trio, best I think the big orange face at center, with very expressive black whiskers! There was once wide green ribbon sewn across the backside, much of which has deteriorated, but a new backing could easily be sewn on if desired. Very charming.
7 1/4” t x 2” w. There is a little loss along the upper right far edge, but overall the needlepoint is in good shape and stable. Early 20th c I would guess.
