Rare!!!! Museum quality with the finest raised satin stitch Whitework embroidery filet, Burratto, Drawnwork, Cutwork, and Reticella lace.

Elaborate scenes depicting Siegfried, Hagan, Sivrit, Krimhild, Brunhild, and other characters from the epic poem. There are scenes depicting the slaying of the dragon, Siegfried's death and large extraordinary scenes of figurals on horseback, castles, etc. A work of art that would bring grace to the very best collection or museum!
