A rare 17th century baroque embroidered border, cut from a bed valance or alter cloth. Embroidered with a gold long stitch background with animal, bird and floral silk polychrome motifs, later repurposed as a runner with coach lace edging. 88cm x 18cm. Condition- few gold threads are pulled, to be expected due to age and use. The edging may need re sewing in places. The polychrome silks are still strong in colour.
