- Description
- Cushion Cover of four diamond fragments of bright brown silk satin brocade in a floral design; hints of shades of blue, green, and rose are visible; includes flat metallic gold threads that are coating paper; the satin has a velvet texture; back cover is of hand-spun, hand-woven linen. From record: the addition of paper saves silk without losing the rich effect. The original brocade would have been suitable for Temple use. Maybe Kinran weave.
