This 19th century Ottoman embroidery done in metal measures 3’2” x 3’9” (97 x 118 cm). The metal seems to be a low carat gold. The motif is a medallion with what appears to be torches coming from the center and out either end ala a pulled medallion all on a floral ground on which the metal has a blue tinge like the sky. This very well done and very beautiful piece is essentially in perfect condition and rather large for an embroidery of this type. https://antiqueorientalrugs.com/product/7634-ottoman-metal-tapestry/
