| Fiziksel açıklama | Red-violet silk embroidery on cotton, with brick stitch (worked in diagonal rows as in the Hungarian point-stitch) and herringbone stitch. There is a wide band of a series of truncated triangles set alternately top and bottom, producing a zig-zag design. The triangles, and the bands which separate them, are occupied by conventional starry patterns. Along the upper edge is a border of conventional plant devices. |
