Description: This vintage Chinese banner features mythical beasts and is made of embroidered silk The first image shows the entire piece and then the next 11 pictures read from left to right 183.5 inches long = 15ft 3.5" or 466 cm Amazing colorful design with a central god like figure sitting in the clouds surrounded by a repeated pattern of frolicking mythical animals * I am trying to show the detail of the work and have the fabric lit. The silk panels' natural look is more beige than a satin sheen. The entire panel is silk though and it will catch the light. There is a pattern in the background panel featuring a lined swastika (ancient symbol for peace and good fortune) design that usually isn't seen but will reflect or show when it isn't embroidered over* Some yellowing and discolorations most noticeable on the dear like animals on the right end (I haven't tried any cleaning, maybe this could be dry-cleaned?) The embroidered section shows a little damage on the upper part on the left side (3rd pic) and the 13th pic is a close up detail of the area The hanging mesh is damaged but this would be easy to cut away or replace Please ask for more details or photos I can only upload this many to the eBay listing Thank You
