Each hand-stitched miniature features a summery theme: a crisp white bikini top delicately suspended from a wire hanger and a coordinating pair of emerald green ruffled shorts adorned with a vibrant floral pattern. The intricate needlework on a textured ivory linen ground showcases the meticulous artisanal detail characteristic of the 1970s. These pieces are masterfully elevated by substantial gilded wood frames with an architectural, stepped profile that provides a sophisticated Hollywood Regency contrast to the kitschy imagery.


Measuring 8.75” W × 0.75” D × 9” H each, these framed treasures are perfectly scaled for precision shelf styling or as a spirited addition to a curated gallery wall in a master suite, powder room, or designer dressing area. They remain in excellent vintage condition, displaying minor scuffs and light age-appropriate character to the gold frames that serve as a distinguished patina and confirm their authentic 20th-century heritage. Their fresh palette and unique subject matter make them an exceptional find for collectors of vintage needlework or those seeking a touch of curated coastal charm.
