Small-scale "tie" pattern fabric. 36" wide, 2.5 yards. Color was difficult to photograph; it reads "reddish brown" from a distance but up close it is actually a pattern in red, green, and gray on a black background. This is a menswear-style pattern as you might see on a tie or vest; very soft and drapey; could also be used as a lining. I have not burn-tested to confirm if it is silk but I believe it is due to width, feel, and source.
