Charming antique Qing Dynasty embroidered Childs silk top.
Traditional Manchu style (side closure)
Embroidered with flower and fauna and large central image of woman (probably Quan Yin) riding a horse...
small area of fabric loss along shoulder fold roughly .75 inches x.25 inches ...unfortuantely common for pieces of this age...
A note on displaying textiles…
When framing Chinese textiles….do not allow your framer to glue the textile to any kind of backing board…
Instead have the textile basted (sewn) to a piece of complimentary background fabric…and then have that fabric glued to the board…this will insure that the embroidery can be easily and safely removed from the frame.
