Arts and Crafts Crewelwork Embroidered Tree of Life Panel in Antique Japanese Bamboo Frame (1) : C1900 Britain bespoke cushions In a soft muted colourThis handmade bamboo frame from Japan dates from the Arts and Crafts era and is exactly the sort of item that was imported and sold by Liberty of London throughout the 19th and into the 20th centuries. We bought the frames which were once part of a screen and found that these hand painted and embroidered Tree of Life panels fitted, we then married the two together to make what you see here. Each panel is backed in a high quality Italian linen.
