Apple Tree, Summer hand embroidered original wall art

Description

Apple tree in its summer beauty: lush green of the leaves and apples yellowing in the sun. Rolling wheat fields assume their ripe golden glory, ready for harvest.

This is the SECOND of the planned four seasons. ATTENTION, FANS OF THIS PIECE: please find its "SPRING" counterpart, featured many times on Etsy FP and in Apartment Therapy NY, listed in my shop. "AUTUMN" is also listed, and "WINTER" will follow in late September. Find them all in this section:

This is my original design (please do not copy, copyright April 2009). It was hand embroidered by my Mother, who has practiced the craft for 30+ years. I, in turn, backed the fabric with acid free cardstock, hand finished the back side (we believe both the front and the back should be presentable) and carefully put everything together.

The artwork is done on fine linen and placed in a woodgrain patterned embroidery hoop that has a loop for hanging. The purpose of the cardstock backing is to prevent the color of your wall from showing through and distorting the colors of the piece.

No glue was used, so the piece is washable; you'd just need to cut one thread on the back.

Dimensions, frame included: 7.5in in diameter (19.5 cm)

SHIPPING: I will ship the piece carefully wrapped and backed to protect it from moisture and damage, Priority flat rate envelope in the US. International shipping is Priority because only this shipping form allows to add insurance. Priority shipping to Australia, for example, is exactly $26.50 for this item. If it comes to less for your country, I'll refund shipping overage minus $1 handling.

Thank you for visiting!
