Finished garment - Tudor woman's silk covered stomacher or placard

• Finished garment
• Tudor Tailor exclusive

A stomacher or placard made for events at Hampton Court Palace in 2003 for events commemorating the death of Elizabeth I in 1603.

Made of paste buckram with one bone down length at the centre. Covered with silk brocade and lined with black linen. The buckram stops a little way back from the edge at either side to allow it to be pinned onto a pair of bodies underneath. The design on the silk is a very pretty tiny delicate flower and leaf design - see third photo.

No other garments or pins are included.
