Description

Patterned strip

Patterned strip, recorded as cotton, though it may possibly have some camelid elements. The strip is fragmented into at least 6 completely separate pieces, the longest of which could reach about 30 cm long and 4 cm wide if stretched to its original dimensions. Certain parts of the strip are decorated only with solid dark colored stripes, while others display a dark geometric design with red background. There is one piece unlike the others, with a looser weave and blue thread present. Color(s): tan, dark brown, and red.
