Fiziksel açıklama
Description: Lacis; silk net darned with silk. Two groups, each of three diagonal red silk threads, knotted in white silk to form a diamond shaped lattice. The lower part forms a border with three lines of darning. At either end of the border there are two S-motifs. Otherwise the two motifs are a diamond shaped arrangement of nine tiny flower heads and a flower with two leaves forming alternate bands. One end has been cut irregularly.
