Buyer's Premium:

A collection of four items dating from the late 20th century, comprising three cross-stitch needlework panels and an empty picture frame. The first piece is a Flowers of the Month sampler, depicting a grid of twelve squares from January to December. Each square features seasonal flora such as snowdrops for February, poppies for August, and holly for December, with the name of the month stitched below. This work is presented in a glazed, medium-brown wood frame. The second item is a vertical panel featuring four British garden birds, including a song thrush and a blackbird, perched on berried branches. It is set within a dark brown mount and a glazed, light oak-effect wood frame. The third item is a horizontal border depicting pink and yellow geraniums (pelargoniums) with green foliage, bordered by a black geometric lattice. This piece is presented in a dark green card mount and is currently unframed. The fourth item is a rectangular empty picture frame with a silver-toned metallic finish. The flora and fauna represented are consistent with the United Kingdom. No maker signatures or initials are visible, indicating these are likely hobbyist-executed works from commercial patterns.
