A beautiful Ecclesiastical Panel
17th Century Italy
Crimson silk velvet decorated with silk applique within metallic cord borders
Central needlework panel depicting a saint, framed within a 17th century silk tassel braid
Original part of an Altar Frontal
This museum worthy panel is almost 400 years old and of course shows evidence of this immense age
Please study photographs as they do form a very important part of the description
On looking inside the panel I can see the saint is a much larger piece which had been folded at the bottom end to fit the opening
SIZE 25 inches x 12 inches
