A square yellow silk textile features a central pink blossom encased in a blue scalloped frame. From this core, scrolling green vines with red and pink flowers curve outward toward the four corners. Identical horizontal borders at the top and bottom showcase a geometric fret pattern in blue, red, and yellow. This symmetrical arrangement balances delicate botanical motifs against a rich golden ground, with mirrored designs radiating across both axes.
