Framed Old Embroidered Pillow Ends with Peacock Family
Framed and Mounted Old Embroidered Pillow Ends with Happy Peacock Family and Flowers. Peacocks symbolize the 9 Virtues: a tidy face, clear voice, careful walk, appropriate behavior according to place and time, moderation in eating and drinking, knowing how to be content, existing together, not being obscene, and always returning. Eternity and continuity is implied through the lovely multi-colored repeating 'ryul' characters that are embroidered all around the borders. A charming, auspicious, and very nicely embroidered pair mounted for display. 4.5 x 4.5 inches, 11.5 x 11.5 cm.
