"A linen coif embroidered with black silk thread in a pattern of flowers and leaves outlined in stem stitch and filled with counted thread infill stitches in geometric repeating patterns. The pattern consists of scrolling stems bearing abstract leaf and flower shapes, interspaced with winged insects. The coif has a widow's peak and cheek pieces, with a narrow edging of linen bobbin lace over the cheek pieces. The seam at the top of the coif has been unpicked."@en . . . .
