A horizontally long tapestry-woven wool textile with warm pink threads creating a solid background for three repeating rows of large, serrated diamonds. Primary diamonds with dark green toothed edges enclose nested white and red centers, alternating with columns of yellow and purple diamonds. Smaller, vertically divided green and white diamond shapes fill the spaces between the larger forms. A cream border with thin red stripes frames the symmetrical geometric pattern.
