Summary[edit]

Description
English: Detail of the Bacton Altar Cloth. This is the only known surviving dress of Queen Elizabeth I, dating from 1590–1610. It was used for centuries as an altar cloth at St Faith's Church in Bacton, Herefordshire, until its rediscovery in 2015. It is made from cream-coloured silk and Italian cloth of silver (reserved for the royal family only by sumptuary law) and embroidered with elaborate designs in silk, gold, and silver thread.
