[QUOTE="Barn Owl, post: 592699, member: 4864"]Sorry, I don't have an actual camera so I'm using my phone. That's interesting. I had assumed that the velvet was simply glued to the back, but now I've reexamined it. I can see the thread ends of the fabric by the broken part and along some of the border, but along the rest of the border, the edge of the velvet is smooth. I think it is painted red on the back, too; where the velvet has worn thin, I can see the red peeping through. EDIT: I think I read your post wrong. I don't think the icon is painted atop fabric, but I can't tell for sure.[/QUOTE]
