Trim c. 20th century

"Trim" is a narrow band of woven silk, likely intended for use as decorative trim on a larger textile object. Created by the Sisters of the Order of St. Benedict, the band features a repeating pattern of stylized crosses, surrounded by geometric designs and set against a burgundy background. The use of gold thread adds a luxurious touch, highlighting the intricate details of the pattern. This type of decorative trim is a common element in ecclesiastical art and design, reflecting the artistic skills of the Sisters of St. Benedict and their commitment to creating beautiful and functional objects for religious use.
