What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a chasuble, the outermost liturgical vestment worn by clergy for the celebration of the Eucharist in Christian churches, primarily in the Roman Catholic church. This chasuble is ornately embroidered with wine leaves and grapes and flowers and foliage, possibly on silk. It is most likely dating to the first half of the 19th century. The quality of the embroidery and the condition is apparently very good. The estimate is based on similar items sold at auction.
