The center is embroidered with a pair of Chinese dragons (symbols of male strength), cherry blossoms (symbols of feminine beauty), and a pear (symbol of long life). Drawn thread embroidery around the edges. All hand-stitched and hand-embroidered. Beautifully finished. Lightweight with a subtle sheen.

This item was acquired by my great grandmother in Indonesia in 1903 as a wedding gift. Please see my notes on condition.
