DescriptionA length of fine white muslin cloth, block printed in sepia and black in an all-over pattern of flowering vines, with narrow vine borders and pallav style and pieces, occupied by a band of single flower motifs. These border ends suggest that this piece of cloth was intended for use as a garment. It is too short to be a full-length sari, but perhaps a lungi or ohdini?
