Fragment of rectangular tapestry stitch fabric made up of two pieces with a natural cotton warp and camelid fiber wefts that draw within squares, pairs of stylized two-headed birds which form a stylized face. The squares, colored brown, red/pink, red and green, are arranged in a checkerboard pattern with a diagonal pattern due to the alternation of colors and alternated with checkerboard squares in yellow and brown, red/pink, green or red. Unstitched and stitched detachments. Double-sided fabric. Bouclé stitch embroidery on a selvage.
