Baldekinum, pannus omnium ditissimus cujus utpote stamen ex filo auri, subtegmen ex serico texitur, plumario opere intertextus. (Ducange's Glossary.) Baudskin, the richest of all kinds of cloth, inasmuch as its warp is of gold thread, the woof of silk, and the whole interwoven with rich embroidery.
