A linen coif embroidered with coloured silks in shades of green, pink, blue, red and yellow in detached buttonhole stitch and satin stitch, with silver and silver-gilt threads in plaited braid stitch and chain stitch. The pattern consists of leaves, roses, pomegranates and pea pods. The front is edged with silver-gilt bobbin lace with spangles. At the crown, the circle of gathers, embroidered over, is original, although the seam at the top has been re-sewn. There is a casing at the bottom and a modern cotton lining added later.
