Fragment of a rectangular cloth, decorated with rows of meanders in purple alternating with tetralobate rosettes of the same colour, all on an unbleached ground. One of the borders ends in one red and one purple stripe, with a decoration of meanders in between. It is made on a type of loom which permitted the unlimited repetition of a decorative unit and the duplication of the same decoration on both the front and the back of the cloth.

Fragmento de tejido rectangular, decorado con hileras de meandros en púrpura que alternan con rosetas tetralobuladas del mismo color, todo sobre fondo crudo. Uno de los bordes se remata con una lista roja y otra púrpura, con decoración de meandros entre ellas. Ejecutado en un tipo de telar que permitía la repetición indefinida de un módulo decorativo, y que el anverso y el reverso tuvieran la misma decoración.
