A vertically long silk brocade features a repeating botanical pattern in muted peach, dark green, and light blue. Large, layered peach blossoms sprout from dark green stems alongside pops of blue and orange wildflowers. Oversized cream-colored serrated leaves, accented with dashed blue lines, weave through the vertical composition. The textile's narrow form shows raw, frayed edges, highlighting ornate floral motifs blooming across a subtle, cream-colored background.
