Spectacular and Rare Heirloom Ayrshire Embroidered Shawl

This incredible rare embroidered Ayrshire whitework shawl is a spectacular testiment to an embroiderer's prowess. The fabric is extremely fine ecru cotton lawn and the embroidered design of repeating bouquets is spectacular. It is large and triangular. The condition is not perfect although the embroidery is the epitome of perfection itself. I consider it wearable, with care. c.mid-19th century.
