    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Wall hanging made from white cloth embroidered with eight yellow horses. Cloth is commercial twill fabric (polyester/cotton blend?) The embroidery is done in a knot stitch ("French knots"). Horses have black outline, and each has a different symbol on its back, where the saddle would be. Corners have white cord stitched to them for hanging. Bottom edge has light blue fringe sewn on.]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Paula Sabloff, Curator at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, says that this was "purchased [in 2001] for a ger bed. Like its crocheted predecessor, it sat between mattress and bed frame so that just the decorative part showed. Like the pillow covers [E432401-E432403] this represents a new style of decoration."]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The symbols on the horses' backs are the eight symbols of Buddhism. From left to right they are the umbrella, which protects against anger; the two fishes, which signify freedom, abundance, and regeneration; the vase, which stores good wishes; the lotus, a symbol of purity, health, and redemption; the conch, symbol of the spoken word and doctrine of the Buddha; the endless knot, symbol of longevity; the canopy, symbol of understanding and knowledge; and the wheel of law.]]></dcterms:description>
