This 18th-century embroidered silk coverlet, likely made for the European market in Macau, China, comprises four silk-satin panels joined onto a silk-satin lining. The central panels are relatively narrow compared to the wider side panels. Despite its age, the coverlet is in very good condition overall: the fringe and lining are excellent, with minor fraying and some staining on the embroidery. There are faint water stains, small silk splits along the edges, and a few small holes, the largest being 1/4 inch. Its measurements, including fringe, are 87 inches by 71 inches (221 cm x 180 cm).
