A vertically oriented, ragged fragment of deep blue cotton features a tan resist-dyed botanical pattern. Winding vines and pointed leaves sprout from a central stem curving toward the top right. Small dots fill varied sections and border a rectangular frame containing a delicate flower. The textile's irregular shape is marked by jagged, frayed edges and small holes, with the thin weave visible amidst the flowing tan motifs and dense background.
