The composition divides into vertical panels of deep brown ground, each seam finished with a fine zigzag stitch. A single meander motif in pale metallic thread sits isolated at the center, balanced by a stacked row of three triangles in tan on the left and a tall zigzag line in silver-white along the right edge. Two rectangular blocks of lighter, textured tan fabric interrupt the dark field at upper left and lower right, giving the layout an asymmetrical, patchwork-like structure.
