Panel of knotted work on woollen fabric, decorated with couched knotted wool and a little silk. Embroidered with wool in long and short, satin, stem and fern stitches, with lattice work and other filling stitches.
It is decorated with a central, curving stem from which grows coiling branches bearing exotic flowers and leaves in bright, polychrome colours. The design shows one vertical repeat. The panel was probably cut from a larger hanging.
