"Embroidered Indian Shawl In Wool And Silk - India For Export Circa 1870 -1900"

Circa 1870 - 1900 India for Fashion in Europe Beautiful square shawl called lame in scarlet red wool twill densely embroidered with floche silk thread. Indian shawl intended for elegant ladies of the Belle Epoque, it can now be used as a table top or sofa throw, because it is very supple and soft. Chain stitch embroideries with a cashmere decoration with very strong polychromy. Four Boteh spandrels on the central reserve (a halo and two tiny spots), and red fringes on two sides of the shawl. Very nice freshness and flawless apart from those described above. No moth holes! Good general state of conservation. Dimensions: 152cm x 152cm
