The back of a chasuble of a pile-on-pile polychrome velvet woven with three pile warps; red (crimson?) green and violet. The velvet is richly brocaded. Gold loops (bouclé technique) have been woven sparsely (dispersed in the red pile) and densely (massed together to form certain elements of the design). The dominant motif of the pattern consists of concentric rosettes, where the smallest one (in the centre) is violet and is surrounded alternately by rosettes woven in golden bouclé loops, red pile, green pile and silver-gilt brocading filé weft. Rosettes are joined (paired) together by thick, twisted gold cords. Each rosette is surmounted by a crown woven in bouclé and violet pile. The whole is hemmed with a braid woven of silver-gilt thread and crimson silk.
