Portion of a shoulder-band from a linen tunic, tapestry-woven in coloured wools and undyed linen thread on linen warps. The band has two lions and two hares enclosed by red and blue foliations on a salmon-pink ground. There is an outer border of zig-zag panels in colours; this is continued to form a stem uniting the band with a leaf-shaped pendant which has a similar border, enclosing a red blossom on a leafy stem. This band exemplifies the use in the Coptic style of earlier patterns of Graeco-Roman origin.

Fiziksel açıklama
Fragment of the clavus from a plain woven undyed linen tunic or possibly cloak, tapestry woven in red, pink, orange, blue, green and yellow dyed wool and undyed linen thread. The tapestry woven band consists of four medallions formed of red and blue leaves, containing alternating lions and hares in multiple-coloured wools. The medallions are on a salmon-pink ground. There is an outer border of zig-zag panels in multiple colours, outlined in black. At the end of the clavus is a leaf-shaped pendant extending from the border, enclosing a red blossom on a leafy stem, again on a salmon-pink ground.
