A vertical silk album cover features a stylized honeycomb lattice in sage green containing tiny blossoms with red centers. Large dark-blue scalloped medallions featuring intricate swirling scrollwork are staggered among the repeating pattern. Along the left edge is a tall cream-colored silk label strip. The textile displays a worn, aged texture with muted earthy tones throughout the composition.
