Two vintage antique mid century MCM Victorian Edwardian style hand painted silk fabric panels - one with roses the other with RARE sweet peas posies bouquets

Roses measures 23" x 24"
Sweet peas measures 24 1/2" x 23 1/2"

This is an ivory-colored silk, see the photo next to white fabric for best color, it has a crisp texture, satin face. One is hand painted with exquisite large red tea roses in singles, buds and bouquets, with green leaves and stems.  The largest is about 4 1/2" across.  The other hard to find RARE panel is hand painted with sweet peas in pink, lavender, purple and red in singles, buds, and bouquets with green leaves and stems.  

I believe these were intended to be pillow or cushion cover front panels, and would be beautiful completed or even framed, as accent pieces or incorporated into other decor. I am unfamiliar with the normal texture and appearance of this fabric so I have not attempted to clean or iron for fear of ruining it. 

The paint on both pieces is in excellent shape with no cracking, falling off or missing spots, no rub or wear.  However both pieces do have frayed edges.  I see a small brown droplet on the roses piece on the right side and a couple of tiny spots that could be part of the fabric on the left?  Also two small yellow spots below top left corner roses, and small separation of fabric near bottom left corner roses **see pictures**. The top and bottom edges of the sweet peas show spots and dirt likely from being stored improperly.  It is creased at the top as well as through both sets of the right corner flowers but the paint shows no issues - no cracking or wear.  There is a faint spot above the lower left corner flowers, to the left of the main bouquet and below the main bouquet ** see pictures**.

Overall these are fabulous pieces!!

Please review and zoom in on all pictures carefully as I have attempted to include pictures of any flaws, fabric color and texture, and/or stains and markings as completely as possible.  In addition, unless the item has an identifying tag then the type of fabric is my best guess.
