A horizontally long off-white silk textile is densely embroidered with intricate floral and faunal motifs in shades of navy, light blue, and tan. On the left, clusters of small flowers and leafy vines interweave around a bird with fanned wings and delicate butterflies. This rich ornamentation transitions into an expanse of plain fabric on the right, punctuated by a single blue and white floral sprig near the far edge.
