Definition
A ornamental embroidery or embellishment using gold thread, particularly in religious or formal garments.
Etymology
From Latin 'aurum' (gold) + 'Phrygia' (an ancient region famous for fine embroidery), combining the name of a region known for textile arts with the word for gold.
Kelly Says
Auriphrygia was a status symbol in medieval Europe—priests and nobles would compete to have the most elaborate gold-embroidered vestments, with some coats requiring months of careful handiwork!
