Rectangular cream floor felt with multicoloured decoration on one side. The decoration consists of a centre panel and 2 borders. The centre panel of the textile is decorated with a central, circular medallion containing a star-shape, and inward-pointing triangles at either end. The inner border consists of a zigzag line between borders, creating a triangular pattern. 2 lines separate this from the outer border. The outward-pointing triangles are accentuated with a blue trefoil motif.
