Fiziksel açıklama
Fabric of brocaded silk with a pattern of palmettes in ogee-shaped compartments formed by a lattice of plain scrollwork. The palmettes are in yellow with green outlines with a few details in blue or white, the latter nearly all worn away. The ground is red with a figured green floral pattern. The silk has been joined in the centre, selvage to selvage and the central motifs along the edges have not been brocaded.
