"This fragment of \"opus anglicanum\" (\"English work,\" as it was called in medieval inventories) is remarkable for the richness of its design and its superb state of preservation. The decoration consists of two cherubim, each atop a wheel from which rays of light emanate; four fleurs-de-lis; and four thistles in three different designs, each motif distributed along a vertical axis. These elements, all embroidered in vibrantly colored silk and silver-gilt threads, are appliqu\u00E9d onto the red velvet foundation, on which the scrolls and other designs\u2014accented with attached minute silver-gilt rings or shot\u2014are embroidered directly. The lay of the velvet, the vertical warp and design, and the outline of the fragment indicate that it formed the lower-right quadrant of a chasuble, worn by a priest during the celebration of Mass.Please note that this object is seen on a rotating basis, due to conservation requirements."@en .
