Shaving robe, linen embroidered with silk in double darning on the diagonal, double running in a line (now worn) and satin stitch.
This almost square cloth has a semi-circular piece cut from the middle of the top edge. This would be placed around the customer's neck and has been edged with a fine red border. The field is decorated with a pattern of offset medallions within a fine lattice of delicate floral sprigs in red, green and white. Each medallion is defined by a line of blue and then a line of serrated, red leaves. In the centre is a red and white flower with a pair of blue and red leaves above and below and smaller red and white flowers around. The base of each medallion is formed by a green stalk and at the top the medallion opens out around a small spray of red and white flowers and green leaves.
Made from two pieces joined horizontally.
