Statement about this object |
According to Bounthavy (Vee) Kiatoukaysy, grandaughter of Lo Mee Ly, the embroidery in blue and peach colors reflects a shift to modern choices and trends. The design in the center is a center post surrounded by flowers. The peach and blue triangles at the star's four points are not symbolic, but decorative fill. |
