Fiziksel açıklama
Panel of white cotton with selvedge along left side, but cut on right side and with twisted warp fringe top and bottom. Down the length is an embroidered pattern worked with beige silk in a very fine chain stitch. The pattern is based on an ogival lattice (five complete ogees wide) each of which contains two floral sprigs which curve round from the basepoint. The lines of the lattice and the border of the panel are worked in a pulled thread stitch.
