Description
Ordito e trama di fondo in seta ecru; ordito di pelo verde e variante in seta rosa, gialla ed azzurra; trama lanciata in oro lamellare. Sullo sfondo ecru in diagonale, si snoda, lungo l’asse mediano verticale, un' imponente struttura a maglie aperte formata da rigogliosi tralci da cui si originano foglie d’acanto ripiegate a riccio e fiori policromi. All’interno delle maglie si alternano sontuosi trionfi vegetali in cui foglie a ventaglio incorniciano infiorescenze stilizzati e mazzi floreali più piccoli. In origine il fondo era illuminato da una lamellatura. Cimosa (altezza 0,7 cm) verdi con due righe bianche in armatura diagonale. Rapporto del modulo decorativo: 156 x 54. Il telo è bordato con un gallone (altezza 3 cm) in seta gialla, oro filato e oro lamellare databile, unitamente al merletto a fuselli (altezza 16 cm) in oro filato e oro lamellare, posto lungo l’orlo, al XIX secolo.
