This anonymous, richly-decorated, circular cushion is likely from the 17th or 18th century. It is made of green velvet with a silver brocade base, adorned with a cardinal's coat of arms embroidered in gold thread and colored silk. The cushion is a testament to the skill of anonymous artisans in the creation of elaborate and luxurious textile objects, demonstrating the use of rich materials and intricate detail in the art of needlework. The embroidered coat of arms suggests that the cushion was intended for ceremonial or aristocratic use, possibly as a symbol of status and authority.
