A single pieces of cloth with a 3/8” hem on one end and a 5/8” hem on the other. The center is delineated by a strip of expertly done needle weaving with a bold line of chevrons on either side. The “soof “ embroidery is virtually double sided, with only a few locations when the thread can be identified going from one small diamond of color to the next. Each half is virtually identical having peacocks with elaborate tail feathers. The simplicity of this piece with its’ almost matching ends is extraordinary.Acquisition
