Kit calamita con perline «Natura morta pasquale 3»

“Easter still-life – 3” shows three large decorated eggs among spring flowers.

What the picture shows

The eggs stand together: a violet one with bands of white and orange beads, a yellow one in green and pink rows, and a pink one with white and lilac stripes. Flowers embrace them below — white and pink blooms with yellow centres, green leaves and stems in small beads. The letters “ХВ” are stitched in white in the upper corners. The background is two-toned, green above and deep blue below; it stays printed, and the whole composition rests on that contrast. This design uses the most beads in the series and it shows: the eggs are filled almost solid and so are the flowers. It takes longer than the neighbouring Easter pieces but looks the densest of them. Only the background stays printed.

The most densely beaded piece of the Easter series — there is noticeably more beadwork here than in the neighbouring designs. The acrylic base and magnetic tape come with the kit; the frame in the photo does not. The kit holds six colours and each of them works in several elements at once.
