Description: 
Ind. no. 31: Belt with double-sided embroidery on both narrow sides. The design consists of four columns with stylised, almost geometric flowers in a vertical arrangement. At the end of the outer narrow side, there is a thin band of embroidery in alternating colours, while along its three outer sides the embroidery is defined by a narrow border that reaches a little above its height. The standardisation of the design is in contrast with the polychromy. Dimensions: Width: 21 cm. Length: 208 cm.
