The creamy silk between the cording has disintegrated in the main, but actually it does not detract from the overall look. There are a few areas where the crimson silk ground has slightly shredded, but very small and hardly noticeable. The sea green velvet has a few marks, but hey this is early 17th century!

A very attractive long length which would look good as a runner on a piece of furniture or to use as a hanging. It just needs a piece of velcro sewing to the back. Great design.
I think the double cording edging is in fact very tight embroidery . It does not appear to be applied, but worked onto the red silk.
