commissioned and built in the United States during World War I

SIgned (a bit faint now) on reverse and dated what looks to me to be Oct

Very Lovely Finely Hand-woven, Hand-dyed Striped Wool Textile miniature architecture when silhouettes and painted portraitsThis textile is gorgeous. Handwoven of very fine, hand dyed wool. I don't know more about it than that, but it makes me glad just to be near it. Wear it as a shawl or hang it or drape it or spread it over something. It will give you a sense of serenity and well being. 59 1 2 x 37 1 2. One small hole at one far corner as documented, minor. Otherwise clean and bright and flawless, stain and odor free.
