Fiziksel açıklama
Plain weave cotton embroidered with silk in straight stitches and with couched metal thread. Directional design with the top of the pattern at the bottom of the panel, so that the wearer saw the correct pattern. There is a border along the bottom: small circular blossoms with large metal thread blossoms in pairs. There is a narrow border with a fine pattern of small green and red or green and purple motifs, almost like a small green bowl with fruit. This border goes part way up both sides. The main pattern is a series of diagonal lines from lower right to upper left. These are of green and yellow silk with metal thread embroidered over the top in a pattern of triangles. There are two sizes of stripes: [1] narrow stripes: white ground with a purple blossom with metal thread swirl in the centre and outlined with metal thread; smallish metal thread flower on a stem with several small, round buds in metal thread, or pink outlined in dark green. [2] wider stripes in two designs: [a] small pink vase outlined with light blue containing 2 sprays of small white flowers, a central pink flower, an arrangement of 5 small white flowers and small leaves and buds in metal thread alternating with the same type of vase with pink flowers, metal thread flowers and a line of 4 triangular white flowers down two sides. [b] large metal thread flowers alternating with a circular arrangement of small white flowers. Threads: Silk, 2S: white, dark blue, light blue, dark green, purple, light purple, green, red, pink. Metal Thread: silver strip close S-wound on yellow silk core; couched with pink silk.
