Horse Chestnut is a small, classic nature motif with a calm and balanced expression. The design shows a horse chestnut tree depicted in full figure. The crown is compact and gently rounded. The leaves are built up in multiple green tones, with lighter stitches creating rhythm and structure.<\/p>\n
The trunk stands out clearly against the light linen background, giving the motif visual balance. The composition is simple and harmonious, characteristic of Gerda Bengtsson\u2019s nature studies, where form is prioritised over excess detail.<\/p>\n
The small format makes the wall hanging suitable on its own, but it also works beautifully as part of a small series with other tree or plant motifs. The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread on linen from Haandarbejdets Fremme, materials that support the calm and timeless character of the design.<\/p>\n
The motif is suitable for both beginners and lightly experienced stitchers. The stitches are clear and manageable, resulting in a balanced and refined finish. Horse Chestnut \u2013 Wall Hanging \u2013 Gerda Bengtsson (GB) is a timeless design that fits naturally into many interiors.<\/p>\n\n
