Textile designs and embroideries in the 17th and 18th century Britain and parts of Europe were strongly influenced by the painted palampores of India – which were themselves a mixture of oriental and western influences. This design is based on a spray of multi-colored flowers in satin, stem stitches, chain, long and short stitches. (18th century)
