Pelmet made from a wide border of woven silk. It has interlaced meanders of oak and acanthus stems overlapping an outer edging imitating a gilded moulding and an inner edging of neo classical design. The colours are shade of green, yellow, cream and a little black.
At the lower edge is a silk braid with a cream ground and a blotch pattern in yellow, brown, cream and green. From this, hanging down from a cream cord are slim tassels of cream unplied silk on a wooden core with plied green cords at intervals. At the top of each tassel is a plied silk ruffle, at the bottom is a flower of silk covered parchment, a small wooden knob covered with unplied silk and a bobble of brown silk.
The velvet is stiffened with sized canvas in twill weave and has a cotton and silk lining.
