The coat of arms of the Báthori family in the middle, enclosed by scattered floral motifs of various sizes with radial rosettes. The border is of different colour and fabric, made of several parts, and embroidered with curved flower stems in the Turkish manner. Gertrud Palotay thinks this piece identical with the one mentioned as "blanket" in earlier inventories. "A bedcover with red velvet middle and blue satin border, embroidered in gold and silver with floral decoration", (cf. Inventarium Thesauri Fraknesis Anno 1725. Almarium Sub. Nris. 75 et 76.)
