#41: Laurel Cloak Medallion

laurelcloak

Some four years ago, the Worshipful Company of Broiderers (WCOB) undertook a project to create a Peerage Cloak for the Order of the Pelican.

A new WCOB project is to create a Peerage cloak for members of the Order of the Laurel.

The cloak pieces are to be worked by members of the Order of the Laurel and of the WCOB.

I worked one of the 30 star medallions needed for this cloak – my medallion features Playford’s characters: Dance, and is worked on gold twist, couched with silk thread, with the addition of four gold spangles.
