This is a square-rigged sail which I have woven from handspun linen from my own flock, and embroidered with a regal peacock in the style of the masters of tapestry in 15th century Flanders.
It is many a long century since we have seen textiles of this quality and fineness. Everybody who has seen my fine handiwork exclaims in astonishment at its beauty.
That peacock is magnificent. If I could go back in time and make my family's crest, that peacock would be front and center.
