This is a rare survivor and a wonderful example of PA folk art. I love the delicate cutting of this tinsel Scherenschnitte (scissor cut in German). It is of PA origin and was done mid-19th century. This example has sections that were enhanced with water colors and what looks like gold leaf to show off the fine workmanship. This item could have been made to decorate the tree at Christmas time. There are no issues and it is in its original frame and glass. The frame size is 8 1/2” x 10 3/4” and the cut work is about 4 1/2” wide x 9” long. Price: sold
