نص عينة
Note two paper labels [1] small white label with brown ink 'Loan Collection V&A 83 309' and on reverse a blue stamp 'NFWI 89 Eccleston Street, London SW1' [2] large brown luggage label with typed 'V&A 309 [deleted and inked number '83' inserted] - Persian 18 [deleted and penciled number '9' inserted] th Cent. Persian Cap showing an excellent combination of quilting and double running in black. This idea could be adapted to various articles. At this period in Persian quilting the padding was frequently coloured such as blue which can be seen on the wrong side of the work. In this case the cording is done with cream colour and the background is padded with blue.'

Fiziksel açıklama
Cap, plain weave cotton quilted, lined with plain weave resist and block printed and glazed cotton, faced with woven wool and embroidered with silk in running and chain stitches. Four conical curved sections sewn together. Each section is cut from two layers of the same white cotton fabric and is quilted using white cotton and also some white silk. Sections of the quilting have been stuffed with indigo dyed cotton thread, creating corded quilting in a series of broken longitudinal lines, zigzags and intersecting reciprocal curved elongated lozenges on each section. A composite band of decorative stitching in black silk delineates the contours of each section in a series of triangles, stepped and interlaced lozenges. Lining: red cotton printed with an offset pattern of rows of a tri-stemmed flowering plant in yellow and white outlined in black. Facing: pieced; bias-cut wool, possibly twill tapestry, in alternate wide toothed stripes of pink, red, pale blue and white; possibly not from one but from two or more fabrics. The stripes contain stylized floral or stemmed motifs in pink, white, dark blue, green, yellow and red. Embroidery Thread: black silk; 2S.
