Fiziksel açıklama	Part of a tea cosy, woollen twill embroidered with silk in straight, stem, buttonhole and couching. Displayed behind glass. Red woollen ground marked out with an oval which extends around the embroidery and may have marked a cutting or a hemming line. The embroidery is slightly irregular, but oval in intention. In the centre is a complex lozenge with a pendant top and bottom, there is a rosette within a circle in the centre and 4 outward facing cypress trees and 4 pairs of curving botehs around it. Four delicate floral sprays with fine white stems are on the outside of the lozenge and inside an oval border edged on the inside with small diagonal leaves. A wider border has inward facing floral sprigs on the red ground and the final border is packed with a green undulating stem and small blue flowers outlined with white. Colours: green, red, white, blue, purple, orange.
