Conical black morel in pink and coral flowers on yellow-green Burlesque 75 inches tallThis conical black morel is hand stitched on cold pressed 100% cotton paper, and is based on an illustration from Le Larousse Pour Tous; Nouveau Dictionnaire Encyclopedique (1909 1910). The mushroom is 4. 75 inches tall, stitched by hand on 5x7 inch 100% cotton watercolour paper, which means that it will pop right into any commercial frame in that size, and be ready to hang on your wall. Materials: Japanese paper and cotton floss on cotton paper.
