Stenciled Velvet by Tiffany Studios. The image shows a rectangular piece of velvet fabric with a blue and tan design. The velvet has a rough, frayed edge around all sides. The design on the velvet is a repeating pattern of blue floral motifs and curved lines on a tan background. The design is symmetrical, with each motif mirrored on either side of a central point. The blue color is a medium to dark shade. The velvet appears to be stained and discolored in several areas, with darker spots and patches visible throughout. A thin, light-colored strip of material is visible along the bottom edge of the velvet. The background behind the velvet is light gray.
