A rectangular cream cotton and linen embroidery features a central landscape of two trees within a circular grape vine border. Eight roundels containing animal figures, including a rabbit and turtle, are interspersed along the vine. The outermost border consists of pointed, diamond-shaped lace panels with intricate geometric patterns, each tipped with small, round bobbles. Symmetrical openwork needlework creates a jagged, decorative frame for the central motifs against a dark background.
