A resist-dyed cotton textile fragment features vertical rows of repeating patterns in muted red, indigo blue, and cream. Indigo teardrops with circular dots alternate with cream-colored, grid-patterned trees. Larger indigo grid-circles sit atop tapered bases, interspersed with cream floral shapes with radiating petals. The cloth has frayed, jagged edges, particularly along the right side. Woven texture is visible across the surface of the rectangular fragment.
