    The Newberry Collection of Islamic Embroideries

    A tab with a continuous vine as border, as well as a leaf-shaped pattern in the centre. This pattern has a diamond in the centre and a heart-shaped leaf attached.

    The distribution of colour is unusual for the central ornament, as it changes from blue to green apparently at random.
