Description
A singular work of contemporary fiber art, this monumental wall hanging is the result of hundreds of hours of meticulous hand-stitching by artist Norman Anderson. Drawing on a career in high-end interior contracting, Anderson brings a structural precision to his textile work that ensures every thread—from the vibrant cottons to the shimmering metallic golds—is placed with absolute intentionality.
Executed in the Japonisme style, the piece features a serene pair of swans gliding through a lotus pond, a classic motif rendered with modern clarity. The central panel is framed by intricate geometric borders in navy and gold, offering a textured depth that changes beautifully under different lighting conditions.
High-density hand-embroidery including "couched" metallic gold threads for a luminous effect. Professionally finished with original black bamboo rods and integrated navy silk tassels. A true statement piece measuring 24.5" wide by 45" long.
