This embroidery, silk on silk, is directly mounted onto a flexible, thin board. What sets it apart is the lifelike 3D appearance of the birds achieved through a unique technique: the embroidery is raised from the background, ranging from 0.25 cm to 1.5 cm in height. Its condition ranges between fair to very good, wiith a large tear at one corner. The presence of L.A. newspapers attached to the original frame, dated 1938, suggests that this textile likely predates that year. It measures 22 inches by 27 inches (56 cm x 69 cm).
