The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam holds a fragment of an orphrey (Dutch: aurifries). It measures 46.5 x 21.5 cm and it is richly embroidered in the or nué technique that was very popular in The Netherlands and beyond in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The embroidery is worked with silk and gold thread. The medallion in the centre shows the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple.
