Silk satin embroidered with silk in running and straight stitches, quilted, backed with block printed cotton and faced with woven silk.

A greenish-yellow ground. A framing band [a] of a floral green stemmed meander holding alternate orange and light blue or orange and grey and brown flowerheads. Along the top and two sides, a wider band of red and orange five-petalled rosettes alternating with six-petalled buds in dark and light blue and orange, accompanied by serrated green and yellow and brown leaf forms, and red and orange isolated buds, all on ground quilted with green silk in a scale-like pattern. A repeat of [a] on these three sides leads into the central panel, which is divided into a lobed arch and spandrels. The arch contains offset rows of isolated floral motifs echoing the border colouring. The ground is quilted with the scale-like pattern. The arch is delineated in olive brown with a multi-coloured chevron infill. Just below the apex of the arch is a roundel containing an inscription and the date. The spandrels are decorated with a lattice formed by simple leaves; within each lozenge is a small flowering plant. There is evidence of under-drawing in black ink.
