This wall piece shows a tree with a full and rounded crown. The motif is embroidered as a botanical study in which the trunk, branches and foliage are rendered with great detail.<\/p>\n
The sturdy trunk rises from the ground and divides into several strong branches. These branches further divide into a dense network of thinner twigs, together forming a broad and lively crown.<\/p>\n
Along the branches appear countless small leaves embroidered in different shades of green. The colours range from light spring greens to deeper tones, giving the tree depth and movement.<\/p>\n
The crown spreads outward to the sides and forms an almost circular shape. The leaves lie closely together, yet small openings between the branches remain visible, giving the motif a light and natural appearance.<\/p>\n
At the base of the tree a small strip of grass marks the transition between the ground and the trunk. This simple detail anchors the composition and brings balance to the design.<\/p>\n
The embroidery is worked in cross stitch with Danish Flower Thread on linen. The many fine stitches render the bark, branches and leaves with precision. The finished embroidery becomes a classic wall piece with a natural motif that works beautifully as wall decoration.<\/p>\n
