Notes
Portion of a linen cloth, with a large roundel and two parallel bands tapestry-woven in purple wool and undyed linen thread. The roundel is filled with an elaborate interlaced pattern. The bands each consist of a narrow stem with leaves and berries; at the end of one of them is a bird. Originally there would have been a large roundel in each corner, and two parallel bands across each end.
