Linen Embroidery Sample with Floral Medallion

1970s · 1990s · Korean

A square linen textile featuring a central medallion of densely arranged floral motifs executed in earth-toned threads. The embroidery displays various flower forms including pansies, chrysanthemums, and stylized blooms rendered in shades of brown, cream, burgundy, and golden tan against the natural linen ground. The flowers are worked with fine detail showing dimensional petals and centers, creating a clustered bouquet effect within a circular composition. The embroidery technique appears to be satin stitch and stem work, with careful attention to shading and texture variation. Raw edges suggest this is a working sample or study piece rather than a finished garment component.
