Decorative late 1800's French tambour embroideries. Two matching pieces. Cotton. Applique work depictting an oval shaped motif center with leafy branches surrounding the sides.
 
At some stage I believe the work was clipped out from it's original piece and glued to the back of the tulle netting in order to preserve and stabilize. You can see old glue residue at the back. Love the way these pieces has aged over time. 
 
Photos are a good indication of actual color and condition.
