Antique Needlepoint Bell Pull — Floral Rose Tapestry with Brass Mounts & Working Bell

A truly rare and impressive piece of European domestic history. This antique needlepoint bell pull was once used to summon household staff — a symbol of gracious living that now makes a breathtaking statement on any wall.

The hand-stitched needlepoint panel features a cascading bouquet of red and yellow roses on a cream ground, framed on all sides by an ornate brass/bronze border with a decorative braided trim. At the top, an elaborate Baroque-style brass finial with scrollwork and acanthus leaves holds a small functional bell on a chain — the original mechanism, still intact.
