    Fairly recent embroidery from China. What began as tourist items has moved to wall art/ decor imports. Done by hand but not great quality.

    Agree with low quality tourist item.

    Would have been welcome information at the outset.

    I agree on the quality unless its supposed to be a pigeon. If so great job.
