Fragment of a Tiraz, Probably the End of a Turban Cloth

Cleveland Museum of Art

Brown fabric with a decorative border at the top, featuring a repeating pattern of teardrop shapes in green and gold. The fabric appears to be damaged, with frayed edges and white spots throughout. A large portion of the fabric is missing from the top. The fabric is rectangular with rough edges. The background behind the fabric is beige with a hexagonal pattern. The decorative border spans the width of the fabric and contains small, repeating designs. Arabic script is present along the bottom of the decorative border.
