A metallic embroidery and cotton square tablecloth features a repetitive border of small, stylized houses and pointed trees on all four edges. The cream-colored fabric shows houses with muted red and blue roofs, while the trees appear in gold and green. The large central area is undecorated, revealing a fine woven texture. A thin, slightly frayed metallic trim finishes the outermost perimeter.
