| Description |
English: A whole child's tunic of linen with in-woven tapestry decorations. The back is approximately 18 cm shorter than the front due to a wide, horizontal tuck that was taken in it originally and stitches from a similar tuck remain in front of the tunic. Selvage at bottom of front and back and at inside of sleeves. Neckline is a slit which has been finished with two rows of red crocheted edging. Sleeves similarly finished, in tan, with only one row. At shoulders, circular tapestry-woven decorations – a green and red floral design with red border. Green and red simple, narrow decorative clavi, front and back, passing over the shoulders. Tapestry-woven medallion containing red bud with green stem in red border, at lower corners front and back, only two remain in whole condition. |
