Description
Shawl of printed silk gauze. The two halves of the shawl are printed with different patterns. One side is filled with a tiny sprig and a small cogged circle, half filled in lilac and half in buff. The other side has a larger scale pattern of small cones incongruously filled with tartan on grounds of bright red, green and purple, set in scrolls of leaves and tiny flowers.
