Woven silk and metal thread, plain weave ground .
Warp: light pink [or faded red] silk
Weft: mauve, white, green, light blue and red silk
Metal thread: silver strip open S-wound on yellow silk.
Metal thread ground with a repeating pattern of two rows:
[1] a square 'vase' outlined in green decorated with small stylised flower heads in red, light blue and mauve from which emerges a large red flame multi-petalled flower head edged in white with a blue calyx. In between this row of red flower heads is an 8-petalled blue rosette with a red centre framed with a green leafy stem forming a heart-shaped vase with a neck from which emerges [2] a similar red flame multi-petalled flower surmounted by two small green leaves. In between each flower head a thin green leafy stem with two small tulip buds in red and blue edged in white curves over a small 8-petalled blue rosette with red centre. This is the smaller version of the design and therefore is similar to one of the sections which makes up Circ.376B-1922.
This is a loom end marked by a narrow band of red weft and along the lower edge.
Sized on the back. There are noticeable weaving faults.
