Description
Long rectangular embroidered hanging or banner. This horizontal textile has eleven panels containing birds (including a peacock), flowers, elephants and a seated Ganesh figure, all with embroidery-framed circular mirrors included in the designs. The panels are bordered by a band of checkered pattern in sections of red, green, white, blue and beige. Along the top of the banner, above the border, is a horizontal panel of repeating triangles (mountains?) with a bird's foot shape in the space between each triangle. Both sides of the banner taper in to points. Edged with red fabric and ten looped tabs along the sides and top edge. The reverse is not backed except small pieces of fabric at each tapered end as well as a section left of centre.
