Coral embroidery, c. 1400

I apologize for the crappy
quality of this shot. We awere not allowed to take photos,
so I had to hit on a mexcian museum guard to distract
him form the side room while Broom took this photo, all
while we watched for passersby. What fun. But this was
a splendid piece. teh coral beads in size were about what
we would call a size"08", maybe as large as
a "06" or "E" bead. fairly large.
