An irregular rectangular panel of printed cotton dyed in indigo blue and discharge-printed by block in black, red, and yellow, as well as green (yellow over blue) and orange (pink over yellow) on a background of bleached off-white. The motif consists of a symmetrical arrangement of birds and intertwining vines studded with roses, tulips, and other flowers. The reverse and selvages are dyed blue. The textile is composed of two sections, the left one measuring 34"H x 32-3/4"W and the right 35"H x 32-1/8"W, joined vertically up the center with machine stitching. (The seam allowances are also joined together with a hand-sewn whip stitch). The pattern is matched vertically, but overlaps imperfectly, thus affecting the repeat. (Measured as approx. 19-1/4" vertically x 18" horizontally. Given in Parry as 20" vertically x 17" horizontally). The upper and lower edges are unhemmed. The sides are irregularly cut with partial selvages remaining. The ground is a cotton in extended tabby weave with two thin warps to one thick weft (called louisine in French). Warps per inch: 92. Wefts per inch: 30 or 31.
