Fancy Mantle Embroidery - Hungarian Folk Art Large Clock
Authentic Fancy Mantle embroidery folk art from Hungary on vintage beige background.
Description of motif:
The mantle (szűr) was made cut straight lines and rectangular piece of baize. It was wore by sheperds for centuries. The mantle defended the sheperd from the cold, rain, wind, snow, gave shading against the sun. It was the pillow, blanket for him. However, the Fancy Mantle (Cifraszűr) has been counted on formal dresses. A peasant bachelor not married since he hasn't attained Fancy Mantle. It's already an important role in courtship. When the suitor left the girl's house deliberately left his Fancy Mantle. Next day if it was in the house, he was welcomed back as a suitor, but if he found it hanging on the porch, he was rejected - "His mantle is exposed" (Hungarian saying) - and did not welcome anymore as a suitor.
Young men in Fancy Mantle are singing into a phonograph.
Back of richly embroidered Fancy Mantle.

Great price for a very nice product. Arrived a day early - unheard of these days. The outside gold area has a little more orange tone to it than shown in the picture. Great packing so product can't get damaged. I used the same packing to forward the clock to my brother and sister-on-law for the 50th wedding anniversary. Printing was just as expected - lovely!

My 93- yr. old Dad has everything.....and now including a clock with pictures of him in action!
Was initially a bit difficult to size & position the pictures in each space, but the end product was worth the effort. He enjoyed it and it was definitely a unique way of memorializing good times in his life. Quality of print was good.
