£300-500

Condition:
These are almost certainly fragments from a robe with later borders and light framed. Both panels have some staining and lighter patches to the terracotta/apricot ground and the material is a bit ruffled and uneven, the embroidered and brocade banded borders are in reasonable condition, both later framed and glazed in slightly different size frames.
