This is a striking framed silk embroidery artwork featuring elegant chrysanthemums alongside traditional Chinese calligraphy. The piece is beautifully hand-stitched in shades of black, gray, and white silk threads on a cream silk ground, creating a refined monochrome effect with subtle depth and detail. The embroidery is mounted under glass in a simple yet classic dark wooden frame with a light fabric mat, allowing the intricate stitching to stand out.
Measuring approximately 61 inches tall, 20.5 inches wide, and 1 inch deep, this large textile artwork makes a commanding presence on any wall.
