  • embroidered & quilted, 1800s, Persian (en)
  • Description: Plain weave cotton embroidered with silk in straight stitches, interlined with plain weave cotton, backed with block-printed cotton and faced with woven silk and cotton. White cotton ground with a narrow inner and outer border of a fine green meander and thin red leaves. A main border contains outward facing isolated sprigs each with a green serrated leaf, a red and orange flower and a red bud. In the centre of the cover is a lobed medallion formed by a red band which loops to create 4 inward facing boteh-shaped leaves. There is a round flowerhead in the centre with red petals between green and orange leaves. This is encircled by a fine green stem and pointed red flowers. Four red flowers, each with a pair of leaves, fill the medallion. Offset bands of a small curved floral sprig decorate the field; these red flower change direction along the central horizontal axis. The borders and the field are poorly decorated compared with the densely-packed medallion. There is a white cotton interlining but the embroidery has not been worked through this. The backing and the facing have been badly attached and do not fit properly. Backing: yellow ground with closely-set rows of a floral motif: white and red blossom, purple centre, 2 red buds on pale green stem and leaves. Facing: striped; bias cut; silk warp and cotton weft. Red, yellow, green., light blue and brown. The embroidery may be Indian, but the backing and facing are Persian. (en)
