ملاحظات
At the end of the 18th century embroidery designs began to develop into rigid and heavily stylised borders for towels and napkins. The colours of 18th and 19th century embroideries were originally very bright but many have faded to pleasing pastel shades; often great quantities of metal thread were used. Napkins were mainly used to clean fingers during meals, but were also used as decoration and as covers. Their designs were consistently inventive.

Fiziksel açıklama
Towel or Napkin, linen with bands of cotton weft embroidered with silk in double darning, double darning on the diagonal and double running in a line, and with metal thread in double darning on the diagonal. Above either end is a borad weft-less band and above this is a green floral meander with pink and blue buds. Above this are three floral motifs: a pink flower on a stem which curves around it, almost completing a circle. On the inside of the stem are small pink buds and on the outer side are small blue spiky flowers.
