This rectangular textile consists of a fine, translucent ground fabric with a scattered pattern of small embroidered floral sprigs. The ground shows areas of loss, small holes, fraying, and darkening, while the embroidered and openwork areas remain largely intact. This textile may be a fragment from the sleeves of a baro-camisa garment.
