Belt. Textile is made of thin cotton, now tan in colour, heavily embroidered along its length in red and blue wool thread. Vertical lines start widely spaced and move closer until it is one continuous pattern of alternating colours in triangle, diamond, linear and X-shaped motifs. Opposite end holds strands of long, light tan coloured fringe.
