Brown, linen white textile with a central rectangle extending seamlessly to narrower flanking rectangles, all encircled with a fringe. Dense, mustard yellow embroidery extends from either side like a background of blocky pyramids meeting at a central square point. The yellow is interrupted on either side of this by two flanking squares from which extend two outlines like quill nibs pointing in from rectangles woven with web-like threads in white, pink, yellow, and blue.
