There is also another small tear in the fabric 1cm near the edge

It was an important kind of currency, kept and stored for many years.
It could be used now as a hanging or a throw or to make garments. There is some colour disturbance (see photo on bed) and wear due to age. But it is largely in great condition is soft, shiney and strong and is clean.
