Counterpane, Bolton type
The quilted textile titled "Counterpane, Bolton type" by an unknown artist is square-shaped. It features a large square with a central circular design. The central circular design is surrounded by a rectangular border with geometric patterns and shapes. The central design consists of concentric circles and lines forming floral and geometric motifs. The rectangular border around the central design features repeating patterns of zigzags, chevrons, and other geometric shapes, as well as floral motifs. The outer border of the textile is also decorated with a zigzag pattern. The entire textile, including the central design and borders, is quilted with a light-colored thread on a light-colored fabric. The quilted patterns create a raised texture on the surface of the textile. The image of the textile appears to be in grayscale. The textile appears slightly wrinkled.
