Beschreibung
Red Paisley Panel Quilt Beautiful traditional Welsh hand quilting including large leaves, a border of 'church windows' and corners of hearts and spirals. The reverse is a fine black stripe on red. Made in 1880 by Ann Lewis (nee Harries) of Llanllwd, Cefynypant, Whitland, Carmarthenshire. Dimensions: 81 x 81 inches / 206 x 206 cm Splendid as a bed cover, even more spectacular as a wall hanging. Ann Lewis was a descendent of renowned Pembrokeshire quilt maker Ann Morse. 'I did not set out to create Jen Jones Welsh Quilts and Blankets. It is something that evolved. Arriving in Wales from the USA in 1971 I was soon aware that an important aspect of the visual Heritage of Wales was in danger of being lost. The Welsh Quilt, an amazing hand sewn finite commodity, was for the most part considered to be 'old bedding' and excess to requirements. I started, what I now think of as a salvage operation, buying them in auctions for almost nothing. Very often they would be bundled under the auctioneers table only to be kicked out at the end of the sale when most of the participants had left for the day. Writing about them and advertising to buy, I paid well above auction prices. In 2016 we were awarded a Royal Warrant by HRH the Prince of Wales. This year we felt so honoured to be granted The Royal Warrant by His Majesty King Charles. His Majesty and Her Majesty Queen Camilla both love and respect Welsh textiles which is to me a very special endorsement for a particularly important part of Welsh Cultural History and we are simply delighted that our quilt will help to raise funds for the RWHA charity.' This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: • • Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.
