Looks like their is some gold needlework?

Delia Mar 22, 12:00 UTC

It's possible some metallic thread was used in the embroidery; it's hard to tell from the photos so would appear to be on the minimal side and does not positively impact the value but I've added it to this appraisal for accuracy.

Do you have a similar item and want to know how much it’s worth?
