This large Italian floss-silk embroidered coverlet, complete with silk lining and a 6-inch lace embroidery border, is in very good condition. There are some loose silk floss strands around the heraldic area in the center, a minor issue that could be corrected by a restorer in a few hours. The lace border might have been created contemporaneously with the main embroidery or added in later generations. Excluding the lace border, its dimensions are 72 inches by 97 inches (183 cm x 246 cm).
