Superb Chinese cut front embroidered female blank rank badge. Late Qing Dynasty. It has beautiful colours and is delicately woven and depicts many auspicious symbols and precious objects. Brick and satin stitch have been used. The piece is in fair but fragile overall condition with some wear and fraying to the edges. All in keeping with age and useage. It has also been in a frame for 60 or so years so is a little flat. Needs securing and framing. Measures: 24cm (9.5 inches) approximately by 22cm (8.5 inches) approximately when the two pieces are placed side by side. Open to reasonable offers. Thanks for viewing.
