[Cynnabar] printed reproduction of early 15th-century fabric

[Melanie Schuessler]

A textile company in Sweden has recreated the fabric of the extant  
"golden gown of Queen Margareta" and also a somewhat speculative  
reproduction of the gown itself.  The fabric has a printed rather  
than woven design and will be available in silk and in cotton.
