Palmettes and Birds from a Tunic or Curtain
Red fabric with a repeating design. The design has a long thin vertical element with a palmette at the top and bottom. The palmette has two rounded elements on either side which resemble leaves. A bird sits on either side in the top and bottom corners of the design. The background of the design is red with gold, green and brown details. The fabric appears to be frayed on the edges.
