The image is a rectangular piece of fabric with a blue background and gold and brown designs. The fabric is framed by a tan border. The title of the piece is 'Piece' and the artist is unknown. The blue background of the fabric takes up most of the image. Gold and brown designs are embroidered on the fabric. The designs appear to be floral patterns and leaves. The gold thread is shiny. The tan border around the fabric is slightly darker at the corners. There is a red stamp in the bottom-right corner of the image.
