Textile Sample from Sample Book

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown fabric sample with a beige background speckled with darker brown spots, divided into two sections by a thin beige line. The left section is slightly smaller than the right. A white label with black text reading "3465" is on the bottom left corner of the left fabric section. The fabric has a woven texture and a subtle sheen. The sample appears to be part of a larger book or collection. The title of the sample is "Textile Sample from Sample Book" and the artist is unknown.
