A vertically long silk and cotton textile features repeating patterns of elongated, jagged arrowheads and stepped diamonds in deep red, cream, dark blue, and yellow. Large circular forms sit within the red fields. Five and a half vertical panels are sewn together, creating slight misalignments in the design where they meet. A thin purple border finishes the edges of the rectangular wall hanging.
