Description: Plain weave cotton embroidered with silk in straight stitches interlined with plain weave cotton, quilted and padded. Off-white cotton ground quilted overall in a fine grid of lozenges using white silk. The borders are embroidered with two types of alternating floral motifs: a tree-like form with two leafy branches enclosed by two curving floral stems and a large blossom rising from a green mound with many leaves and two curving stems ending with a bud. There is an inner and outer border with a meandering floral stem, a group of three leaves and two types of pink flowers. The field has five large floral sprays in each half, all facing to the centre. These sprays rises from a green mound with lots of green leaves and have three large pink blossoms. In addition, there are two smaller single flowers in each half.
