Embroidered textile made of four narrow panels of light grey cotton neatly sewn together, with embroidery in dark blue thread occupying the central portion. A circular pattern at centre contains a scattering of flowers surrounded by leaves. Surrounding this are smaller blocks of embroidery showing vases filled with branches and leaves, interspersed with large stylized butterflies. The corners are embroidered with fruit such as apples, pomegranates and pears sitting amongst branches and small leaves. Most of the pieces in the textile are filled with a variety of small repetitive patterns such as circles, squares, and tiny flowers.
