Description: Dress fabric of woven silk and metal thread; with weft floats on the back. Gold ground with rows of botehs facing the opposite direction in alternate rows. The metal thread is silver-strip open S-wound on a yellow silk core and is the foundation weft. The warp is orange silk. It is a loose sateen weave. Each boteh is plump with red roots, a dark outline, dark green leaves, a central white blossom and red and light blue flowers. At the top of the piece is a band of red silk which marks a loom end or piece end. There are places in which red silk has been used instead of orange in the weft.
