The length of jacquard-woven silk consists of a yellow-gold ground with small-scale compartmentalized design in blue and purple featuring circles with red cross motifs, red diamonds with white wan motifs, and double wan motifs in purple on gold. Weave creates a 'sharkskin' effect, looking either gold or purple, depending on angle of viewer. Both selvages are present; top and bottom edges are cut. One end (pattern has no orientation) seems to be the end of the bolt, due to the bands of color woven into it.
