Fiziksel açıklama
Plain weave cotton embroidered with silk in straight stitches and needleweaving and silk and metal thread in pulled thread work; whitework Three sides have been rolled and stitched in place. Rather loose embroidery. The outer edge is worked with reciprocal diamond heads. There is a band of loose needleweaving either side of a wide border divided into lines of 4 squares loosely worked in pulled thread: a block of 4 lines in silk followed by 2 using metal thread - this arrangement is lost in the corners and is in blocks of 3 lines in silk down one side. There is a band of diagonal lines around the central rectangle. There are 2 patterns but the arrangement is irregular: a wider band of diamonds in metal thread, and lines of a closed mesh in either silk or metal thread. The central panel has three borders worked in silk, but each does not necessarily go round all 4 sides. There are 4 corner squares inside in metal thread edged with reciprocal diamond heads. The rest of the ground is undecorated. Cotton thread: Z-spun Embroidery Thread: white silk; 2S, very regular twist Metal Thread: silver-gilt strip open S-wound on a white silk core.
