. . . "A linen coif embroidered with black silk thread in back stitch and French knots, and silver thread couched in knots. The pattern consists of a repeating small floral motif. The coif has very shallow cheek pieces and slight widow's peak. The front edges and top edge are worked with black silk in buttonhole stitch. The bottom edge is turned and hemmed to make a casing for a narrow linen tape. The top seam and crown gathers have been unpicked at a later date."@en .
