DescriptionA small yellow fabric mat, ovoid in shape, made of two halves crudely whipstitched together after first being individually hemmed, and lined in ecru cotton, and embroidered in red, white, and black chain and satin stitch to form geometric patterns. Function of these small mats is a mystery.Note: There are seven similar pieces in the Conger collection.
