Posted By: Bill H Thu, Oct 15, 2020 The embroidery has a hint of Chinese about it, but the embroidered characters at the side say 'He nei' (河內), which is Chinese for the capital of Vietnam. The peacock doesn't appear to be wading, so I'm supposing Hanoi is where this work probably was done, perhaps in the early part of the 20th century before World War II or the Vietnam War. |
