History: This piece originates from Anna Frodi Milano, dating to the late 1980s to early 1990s. Crafted from a blend featuring 70% wool with nylon and acrylic, the garment showcases an expressive artisanal novelty motif with textured 3D fruit, crocheted flowers, and pom-pom appliqués. The playful, exaggerated design aligns with the maximalist statement knitwear trends prevalent during the late 1980s boutique fashion era. Such heavily tactile, novelty-themed wool cardigans produced in limited quantities have become niche favorites among contemporary collectors.
