Very Unique The Maker: Explicitly "Stamped J.R. Witter, Ashburton N.Z." (famous for spinning wheels). • The Wood: Solid Rimu, a native New Zealand timber that is now highly regulated and rare. • The Embroidery: "Jacobean style" and the "hidden mouse motif," which is a classic, collectible feature in high-end needlework. • Condition: wood has a "warm vintage patina" and the fabric is clean and free of "moth damage" or "fading." ***please note the chipped wood on one of the design circle which is hard to see that is pictured along with some staining/fading on crewel work consistent with age
