1924.38.10(JN 1997) - Rectangular length of cloth with a cream ground and multicoloured bands of patterning. It is fringed at the two short ends. The cream cotton ground appears to be a plain weave. The horizontal bands of coloured designs were probably created using supplementary cotton weft. Most of the coloured designs are abstrate but there are two bands showing a horse-motif. The blue-coloured thread is possibly indigo-dyed.1924.38.10
