Cleveland Museum of Art

The Banded Wearing Blanket (Diyugi) is a rectangular textile with a horizontal striped pattern. The blanket is composed of numerous horizontal stripes in various colors, including shades of brown, orange, red, blue, and white. The stripes vary in width and are arranged in a repeating pattern. Some stripes feature solid colors, while others display a combination of colors. The top and bottom sections of the blanket have a similar pattern, with brown and orange hues dominating. The edges of the blanket are rough and frayed, with two short tassels visible at the bottom corners. The background behind the blanket is plain white.
