Fiziksel açıklama
Resht work, plain weave felted wool, patchwork, inlaid work, embroidered with silk in a variety of stitches predominantly chain stitch. Note: researchers may use the terms applique and tambour when searching for this category of textile even though they are incorrect. Very light brown ground with an undecorated border about 4 cm wide on all 4 sides. The decorative centre is delineated by a line of adjoining white circles. There are two vertical lines of lobed compartments, each 22 cm wide; there are 4 compartments per line and they are linked vertically by a narrow white and blue oval line. The floral decoration within each compartment is dominated by a pair of green horizontal scrolling frames and by dark red stems and a pair of vertical green V-shapes. The spaces between these compartments ie. a central vertical line and a half line down both sides, are filled with floral motifs on dark red stems. Vertical dark red stems echo the V-shapes previously mentioned and green scrolling lines edged with white circles echo elements from the compartments. Embroidery threads: 2S silk; very dark red, red, dark pink, pink, dark yellow, yellow, purple, blue, light blue, white, black, dark orange. Inset wool: red, orange, dark blue, purple, dark pink, turquoise, white, dark green. Some black under drawing or printing is visible.
