This embroidery consists of delicately crafted appliques using seed stitch ("forbidden stitch"), silk floss, and couching techniques. Each applique is gently affixed to a single sheet of fragile, soft-textured hand-made rice paper. Measuring 18 inches (46 cm) in width and 10 inches (25 cm) in height, this piece may have been part of a cherished heritage book, evident from its folded center.
The intricate silk-work is exceptionally fine, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship. While the embroidery remains in excellent condition, there are signs of foxing on the paper.
