DescriptionScarf made from off-white mull and featuring what appears to be a handsewn border done in dark brown thread. The border features a design of leaves and flowers emerging from a thin, continuous stem, though there are now significant losses to this design throughout: Staining remains indicating the original pattern, but the thread has detached. Apart from this border, the scarf is otherwise unadorned.
