A long, rectangular, off-white crepe fabric piece that has embroidered borders. The embroidered border has a main design consisting of red and green beads among red and green thread with white-gold-coloured metallic-like thread in an alternating pattern of three three-petalled profile flowers and a radiating diamond shape surrounded by a two-part laurel-crown-like shape. Each inner corner has the same pattern in a diagonal line with the latter shape at the centre having the former shape at either end. Edges are done in a white-gold-coloured metallic-like thread spiraling into a three-leaf clover-like pattern. One end is unfinished.
