<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KikoBlueEyes, post: 4617509, member: 8363&quot;]I don&#039;t think this is an antique Chinese silk embroidery.&nbsp; The ribbon along the edge is of the same embroidery as the main subject.&nbsp; The ribbons were first applied because the silk embroidery was cut from clothing of the wealthy and Imperial classes&#039; clothing.&nbsp; They needed a ribbon to hold the frayed edges.&nbsp; The edge of this piece is embroidered to appear to be a ribbon.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
