Description

Two orange embroidered panels, mounted onto vertically rectangular blue panels, stitched together. The embroidered images on the orange panels are virtually identical, but reversed. Each panel has a phoenix in flight at bottom, and a dragon at top. Most of the dragon and parts of the phoenix, and other areas on the panels, are embroidered with metallic fibre. The two creatures are accompanied by a gold and blue cage-like structure, foliage, flowers, and decorative motifs. The orange panels have a thin blue and white boarder slightly inset from the edges. The blue mounting panels have a pattern in the weave of the cloth. The blue panels are attached by wide stitching at top, middle and bottom. They are backed by green cotton sewn onto each side separately.
