Square panel from a tunic of woven silk. A circle enclosing a mounted huntsman transfixing a lion with a lance. The band outling the circle, which also served to link it to the repeating circles has a succession of heart-shaped blossoms. The intervening spaces have floral designs of palmette form. Colours are blue, red, green, yellow and white, on a red ground.

Fragmentary silk stuff in the shrine of St. Mandelbertha in Liege Cathedral is almost idential in design with this panel.
