Ribbon of Jacquard-woven silk. In blue and white silk with a design of elongated hexagons with stepped ends. These are alternately in tabby of blue and white, and in a flushed white weft bound to give the impression of vertical stripes. This rep weave is also found between the hexagons in bright blue, and the rest of the bright blue surround is woven to give a cannele effect. Label on the back stating that the ribbon was exhibited at the 1851 Great Exhibition.
