This fragmentary piece of silk tapestry, predominantly in blue, green and dull yellow, shows three bands. The central band is of circles or lozenge-pattern,and it is flanked by bands of what probably once were arabic inscriptions, but these are now disentigrated. The tapestry piece is still attached to its original plain woven linen ground.
