An intricate twin dove motif in red silk is embroidered over a hand spun cotton backing. The level of detail is exceptional. It is between 50-60 years old and in good condition for its age with expected loose threads, threadbare patches, minor stains, and fading. This charming old silk textile offers a message of peace and lends itself well to being framed as a unique artifact from a bygone era.
