Hand-stitched with meticulous detail on textured ivory linen, each miniature depicts a piece of a high-fashion leopard print swimsuit—a bikini top hanging gracefully from a wire hanger and matching ruffled bottoms. The combination of classic textile craft with an exotic feline motif creates a unique visual narrative that is both sophisticated and delightfully kitsch. They are elegantly housed in substantial gilded frames featuring a stepped architectural profile, adding a touch of Hollywood Regency glamour to the whimsical subject matter.


Perfectly sized for precision shelf styling or as a spirited addition to a powder room, designer dressing area, or coastal guest suite, each framed piece measures 8.75” W × 0.75” D × 9” H. The set remains in excellent vintage condition, exhibiting minor scuffs and light age-appropriate character to the gold frames that serve as a distinguished patina, confirming its authentic 1970s heritage. These rare originals offer a unique opportunity for collectors of vintage needlework to add a storied, curated layer to their interior display. Secure this captivating pair for your collection today.
