- Description
- A typical, heavy unbleached cotton, with appliques of polyester, door curtain used by Tibetans. They can be hung on the wall or placed on a rod over the space above the door frame. Door curtains are a way that Tibetans have developed to view auspicious symbols; this one has a navy blue polyester Eternal Knot in the centre. There are three loops of natural cotton for a rod to go through on the top, then an appliqued strip of royal blue cotton, underneath a red strip, then yellow, and finally a larger pleated navy blue pleated flounce. There is a navy blue border all around the curtain.
