Peach and Pomegranate Chimney Sweep Quilt
Pattern: Chimney Sweep
Date: c. 1870-1880
Provenance/Notes:
A gorgeous and festive combination of peach and pomegranate colored fabrics against a cream calico with little pink and red sprinkles
Notice the sporadic placement of the red blocks among the peach and the small squares that flank each of the chimney sweep blocks
Beautiful clamshell quilting in the in-between spaces
A soft and cozy quilt
Maker/origin unknown
In excellent condition and washed by hand with just a few small and light residual marks as shown in last photo and one very small open seam that just needs a few stitches
Measurements: 70” x 87”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount. Price for smaller items have been adjusted (lowered) to account for the lower shipping cost.
International customers: If you enter a shipping address outside of the US, you will not be charged for shipping upon checkout. A separate invoice will be sent once shipping is calculated. If you need a shipping estimate, please reach out ahead of time. Tax will be added only to Virginia state orders. Orders shipped to destinations outside of Virginia are not taxed.
15% of profits from every quilt sale in this next collection will go towards The Craft Emergency Relief Fund (CERF+) to aid their efforts in providing relief to craft artists from the damaging effects of Hurricane Helene. For more about their work, please see www.cerfplus.org
Note on antique/vintage quilts: Many of the quilts we sell have been loved, slept under, washed, sunshine dried, taken on picnics, slept on underneath the stars, and lived lifetimes before arriving at our doorstep. You can expect to see repairs made by later generations, fraying around the edges or in certain blocks, discoloration or yellowing, cotton/wool batting—or as we like to call them, tiny sheep—peeking through. They are imperfect, but their imperfections are charming to us and we hope you feel the same. They are reminders to us of their old age and the history to which they've been a witness. We try our best to note any imperfections, but it’s possible we might miss one here and there. Well-crafted, handmade antique quilts in their original form are becoming scarcer, and we believe it's vital that we preserve them and continue to love them, imperfections and all.
Because these quilts are one-of-a-kind and we are a tiny enterprise, we do not accept returns; please review all photos and the description carefully and ask any questions you may have prior to purchasing.
