    I think more and better pictures including close ups will be called for. Can you see the back.

    It looks like victorian woolwork but I would like to see the back and a good close up the stitches.
    Is there much fading when comparing the back and the front?

    Size? It looks to me like it may have been salvaged footstool/chair/piano stool/firescreen... like that.
