Beaded Shawl.

One of the members of the Embroiderers Guild was at the talk about embroidered peacocks that I presented a few months ago.  She came up to me today  and gave me this stunning beaded shawl.  She inherited it from a well-travelled friend, and although she doesn't know where her friend got it, I am guessing it might be from India.  Here are some photos - one of the full length, and one closer up.

Beautiful shawl. Can't remember visiting here before so I've been looking through old posts. Amazing collection and the cartoon below is very funny. Sylvia
