A horizontally long woven cloth features a deep maroon-red field divided by horizontal bands of glinting gold threads. Between these bands, dense diagonal rows of repeating gold and green patterns create a shimmering, fine texture. A decorative border of gold and green strips frames the four edges. The structured geometric embroidery and metallic threads give the fabric a rich, dense appearance across the surface.
