Notes
Cuff of a linen tunic, with two applied panels, tapestry-woven in red wool and undyed linen thread on linen warps. The larger panel has a middle compartment enclosing a bust within a circle; the side panels are divided horizontally into two parts, each of which contains a bird and an animal within a circle; floral border above and below. The smaller panel has a grotesque human figure within a circle, and two confronted animals below. Spherical linen button and loop for fastening at the wrist. Probably from the same tunic as roundels No.830-1886,832-1886.
