Professionally Framed Canadian Penny Cross Stich Art in Conservation Glass

This one of a kind art is created using traditional cross stitch on aida cloth. The featured coin is made of bronze (98% copper), giving it a rich, reddish tone that reflects the classic look of early Canadian pennies—before the material was changed and the penny was phased out entirely in 2013. It is professionally framed in a warm, reddish woodgrain shadow box with a layered mat in soft neutral and rust tones. Most notably, the frame is fitted with conservation-grade glass, a premium upgrade typically valued at $50–$100 on its own. This specialized glass protects the textile art from harmful UV rays, significantly reducing fading and discoloration over time. It ensures the piece maintains its vibrant colors and detail for years to come—making it not just a beautiful display, but a lasting, heirloom-quality investment. The back is fully sealed with a hanging wire and includes the original framer’s label for authenticity and provenance.
