Description: This is an embroidery recreation of a set of four -- Plum Blossom, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. These are famous flowers and they were endowed with lofty symbolizing by poets, scholars and painters from history, so they were part of Chinese culture.

Orchids used to grow in wild valleys without bright colors but they are quietly fragrant. Orchid paintings manifest the charming leaves, flowers, the refined character and the lofty symbolizing of human dignity. This is a well stitched embroidery piece and the whole image looks serene, simple and beautiful. All the Chinese characters and stamps were embroidered too.
