A peony design was embroidered on a navy-colored quilt and the bottom was wrapped with oil paper. This is a wrapping cloth made in Gyeonggi-do. Thick hanji (traditional Korean paper) was coated with plant oil to make this wrapping cloth, used to cover a dining table or a wooden plate used to hold food.
