Broken gold couching threads around borders. Some losses throughout. The piece looks old, but the colors are even and consistent. There are reflections from the glass making it difficult to get a really good image. Condition is commensurate with age and use. The frame itself shows use. Don't know why. Textile considered to be in good condition. less

Large Chinese embroidered silk badge of a three toed dragon. The 3-toed dragon is the symbol of government ministers and public officials. This piece could have been from a wall hanging or off of a room screen. Color of badge is even; glare from the glass is making it look darker or lighter in areas. This badge measures 20.5" high and was placed on a cream colored closely cropped brushed velvet material, then framed. Framed measurements are: 26.5" wide x 33" high.
NOTE: A nice feature is the gold couching making up the dragon's head. These threads were all hand applied and stitched into place.
