One of four fragments probably from a coat woven in ochre on a dark brown ground, depicting pairs of addorsed regardant birds of prey clutching hares amidst lotus blossoms and vegetal scrolls. This fragment appears to be the extension of another of the fragments in the collection and depicts the rest of the bird and its full pair also clutching a hare.
