Silver gilt and polychrome silk thread embroidery on linen. Worked in double darning, satin, double running, stem, and brick stitches and punch-work with overcast stitch. Green, yellow, black, white, chestnut, orange, gold, and silver. The centre is plain, with the embroidery confined to a large panel at each end. Both panels show the same pattern of a tall ornamental vase containing flowers. On each side above is a multicoloured legless bird. Below on each side is a small crested yellow bird. On each side of the vase (and apparently attached to it by a string) is a small figure of a man who leads (also on a string) an unidentifiable quadruped with a conventional floral spray sprouting from its tail. At each end beyond the pattern is a tasselled fringe.
