The stems and outlines are in couched metal thread. The motifs are in 3 off-set rows, the central row contains 2 motifs flanked by 2 smaller-scale buds in similar style. Yellow, green and pinks predominate.
Backing: pieced; two different colours of woven silk with the larger bits combining yellow and red.
Fringe: green silk.
