Italian (inuod) gold thread

Executed by mistake. My order was for a synthetic thread but Nena Bernales' bordadera heard her wrong and executed the cape in Italian (thrice expensive) gold thread instead.

 

The fair Nena did not charge me extra, saying it must be the Penafrancia's wish to be draped in an expensive cape.

 

Being a Bicolana herself, Aling Nena is a devotee of Ina, and keeps an ivory version of the image in her Oroquieta shop.
