Woven silk and metal thread
Fiziksel açıklama
Dress fabric of woven silk and metal thread. With a small scale floral design in salmon pink, blue, white and brown silk on a ground of yellow silk with a loose twist of metal thread. Red silk warp and red, blue, white and brown silk weft. The design is one of small flower heads grouped by leaves branching from a central star shape to form a medallion of a larger flower with a four-lobed compartment also filled with flowers between. Metal thread: silver strip open S-wound on light yellow silk. Three pieces of the same fabric. Metal thread ground with a dense pattern formed of two designs in alternate rows: 8-petalled rosettes edged with serrated white leaves, each petal containing a flower head in either white, red and brown or in blue, white and faded red. At the centre is a 12-petalled rosette in faded red with a blue centre, edged in white. This main rosette forms a lobed lozenge shape with a central 12-petalled rosette in red and blue, framed by an 8-petalled star in white whose point terminates in either a small red flower or a larger blue and faded red flower head. The four junction points of these lozenges are marked with a red flower with a blue centre.
