Two half panels of embroidered Chinese tapestry.
Two half panels, embroidered to form one picture when joined together.
Possibly made in the 19th century.
The two panels depict a bird creature on top of waves on a raised platform, amongst the clouds. The colours of the piece are vivid blues whilst the bird is yellow/gold. Yellow is a very auspicious colour within Chinese culture as it is the colour of imperial robes and roofs.
