Various Spanish Textiles
Warning: the full sized images are VERY large.
Pictures are from
Gómez-Moreno, Manuel. El panteón real de las Huelgas de Burgos. Madrid, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Instituto Diego Velázquez, 1946.
Item. A Netted Textile from the Tomb of Isabel de Molina.

Item. A Naalbinded glove from the Tomb of Maria of Aragon.

From a different source: Two views of fingerloop braiding from the burial garments of Archbishop Rodrigo Ximenez de Rada. (And my heartfelt thanks to the monks of Santa Maria de Huerta who allowed me to see these items up close and in person!)
