A vertical wool and silk textile features a central bouquet of muted pink and blue blossoms set against a cream ground. From three tasseled bows at the top, a floral garland arcs downward, framing the design with delicate roses and green foliage. Faded golden-beige tones saturate the wide outer borders. Significant wear disrupts the lower half, with horizontal tears and frayed edges concentrated along the bottom and right side of the rectangular panel.
