Physical Description

A white linen strip of Reticella embroidery. 1.5cm squares are worked alternately with two different fillings - one of diagonal bars and the other with small spider webs. The piece shows clearly the technique in which the embroidery is worked on the grid left by withdrawing groups of warp and weft threads.
