Cleveland Museum of Art

Rectangular fabric with frayed edges, primarily dark blue with gold patterning. The fabric features a repeating pattern of eight-pointed stars and crosses. The star and cross pattern consists of a central circle with a gold figure inside on a dark blue background; the gold figure appears to have a head at the top and legs at the bottom, and two symmetrical extensions on either side. The figure is surrounded by a gold circle. On either side of the central circle are gold star and cross motifs on a dark blue and green background. The star and cross motifs consist of a central circle surrounded by eight triangular sections, alternating with triangular sections. The fabric has a beige background behind it.
