Colors: yellow-brown and gold threads. Dimensions: 39.5 cm high x 43 cm wide., The image shows a textured fabric with an intricate woven pattern featuring floral and swirling motifs. The dominant colors visible are reddish-brown, gold, and muted green, with highlights of pale gold or beige creating a slightly metallic sheen. The surface displays a mix of vertical striations and raised embroidered-like areas where the pattern is more pronounced, and there are a few small worn spots where the weave appears frayed.
