Green tabernacle veil with embroidered angels

Green tabernacle veil with embroidered angels

The tabernacle that stands on the gradine of the high altar is covered by a veil in the liturgical colour of the season. This green veil is made in two parts, each of which shows an angel embroidered on a green damask ground. The present veil was reconstructed from an older original by transferring the embroidery on to new damask.
