Berlin wool work

Berlinerbroderi, broderi sytt efter industriellt framställda broderimönster som under 1800-talet såldes över hela världen av förläggare i Berlin. Mönstren var uppritade i färg på papper med förtryckt rutmönster. Broderierna syddes ursprungligen med silke men efterhand övervägande med ullgarn på stramalj. Under deras storhetstid 1840-1850 fanns det i Berlin 21 firmor som tillverkade mönster, och enbart år 1840 fanns ett utbud på 14 000 olika mönsterark.

Berlin wool work is a style of embroidery similar to today's needlepoint that was particularly popular in Europe and America from 1804 to 1875. It is typically executed with wool yarn on canvas, worked in a single stitch such as cross stitch or tent stitch, although Beeton's book of Needlework (1870) describes 15 different stitches for use in Berlin work. It was traditionally stitched in many colours and hues, producing intricate three-dimensional looks by careful shading. Silk or beads were frequently used as highlights. The design of such embroidery was made possible by the great progress made in dyeing, initially with new mordants and chemical dyes, followed in 1856, especially by the discovery of aniline dyes, which produced bright colors.

Berlin work creates very durable and long-lived pieces of embroidery that can be used as furniture covers, cushions, bags, or even clothing.
