Tela stampata per ricamo con perline (senza perline) «Doni di Natale»

“Christmas Gifts” shows a fireplace with three knitted stockings and a shelf crowded with Santa figures and candles.

What the picture shows

Along the top shelf stands a whole row: several Santa figures in red and white coats, three tall candles with flames, little houses, fir trees, a crescent moon and gift boxes. On the mantel below lie mittens, boxes with bows, a striped candy cane and sprigs of holly with red berries. Three long stockings hang from the mantel in different patterns — red and white, blue-and-red striped, and knitted in diamonds — each with small presents peeping out. The firebox glows a warm ochre, a green garland with berries runs along the bottom, and a pale blue band frames the piece. The beading is partial: the stockings, the figures, the garlands and the shelves are beaded, while the back of the firebox and the wall stay printed.
