Kemha silk with lattice-framework design, Turkey (probably Bursa), 1550-1600. The design of this textile is based on staggered rows of pointed-oval medallions. They have a tulip plant in gold on a green ground at their centre and are surrounded by two gold-ground borders. The spaces between the medallions are filled with two intertwining vines. One is set with pomegranates, the other with tulip flowers. The same pattern appears on an Italian brocade of roughly the same date (1550-1599) in the Kremlin Armouries in Moscow. This Italian brocade is the only known example in which Ottoman patterns were copied for Italian silks.
