A square yellow and cream printed silk textile features a repeating geometric pattern of radiating sunbursts. Semi-circular shapes emit straight lines that overlap with faceted, angular forms to create a three-dimensional appearance across the surface. Small text is printed vertically along the left edge. The textile's margins are slightly frayed and irregular, with several small, dark rectangular marks scattered across the field.
