Toile imprimée pour broderie de perles (sans perles) « Jouets marins »

“Marine toys” shows a table where seashells, a glass vase of pink blossom and a round bowl with a goldfish have gathered together.

What the picture shows

On the right, a tall yellow-green footed vase holds a branch of pink flowers like apple blossom; another branch leans to the left. Behind them stands a round glass bowl of water with an orange fish. In front, a translucent green-blue plate on the table is heaped with pearly shells, and more shells lie scattered across the cloth. The cloth is striped in shifting mint, pink and lilac, and the background is built from vertical strokes of green and white. Beading is full: the whole field of the pattern is covered in beads, background, cloth and glass included.
