Mid 19th Century Red and White Antique Delectable Mountain Quilt

Beautifully and expertly hand quilted, this civil war era antique quilt is a treasure. This is a very large quilt, in excellent condition with minimal staining and some overall yellowing and toning due to age. The turkey red and blue leaf fabric is bold and beautiful, note that some of the centers of the leaves have rotted out as is is typical of these prints due to dye processes of the time. The half triangles in turkey red and chrome yellow also had a dark, dotted design element that has thinned. This quilt was never used and has been carefully kept, so it lies beautifully flat and displays well. The binding is in good condition with only scattered spots of age-related wear. It's a beautiful size and the hand quilting speaks volumes.
