Descriptions

Description
In this wallhanging, a somewhat simplified vertical floral or pomegranate pattern is contained within a more geometricized outer border. The exceptionally suffused color and vibrant, but pure green make this an example of a high level expertise in dyeing. This object illustrates a warp-faced plain weave.
