This anonymous "Chiné" piece, a type of fabric with variegated patterns, was made in the late 19th-early 20th century. The textile features a repeating floral motif, with delicate flowers and leaves in shades of pink, white, blue, and green, all on a bright yellow background. The "Chiné" technique, originating in China, is often seen in textiles, creating a unique textural effect. The piece is now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, showcasing the artistry of textile design during this era.
