Antique Chinese Qing Dynasty Silk Embroidery Framed Robe Roundel Panel Photo
Framed Antique Chinese Silk Embroidery Roundel (With Original Robe Provenance Photo)
- Period: Late Qing Dynasty (circa 1860–1890)
- Description: A finely detailed late 19th-century circular silk panel featuring a detailed narrative scene. The hand-embroidered composition depicts a traditional figure in flowing salmon-red robes set against a dark ground, flanked by classic stylized rockwork, clouds, flora, and a bird in flight. Exquisitely executed with hand-sewn satin stitches and couched details.
- Provenance: This roundel was carefully saved from an authentic antique Chinese aubergine/plum-colored silk informal woman's robe (changyi). A physical photograph showing the complete original robe—with this exact roundel intact on the fabric—is securely attached to the back of the frame, providing definitive context and history for the piece
The piece has been professionally matted and housed in a modern gilt-painted wooden frame. The frame presents beautifully for display but shows a few minor, light scuffs along the outer edges from handling and storage. Please review all high-resolution photos for close-up details of the embroidery texture and frame finish.
