A horizontally long cream-colored silk band is ornately embroidered with dense blue and brown plant life. On the left, clusters of flowers and vines surround a butterfly and two birds with long, patterned tails. To the right, a large section of shimmering fabric remains plain, except for a single floral branch with blue petals and leaves that sprouts near the far end.
