Description from the seller

Splendid red velvet fabric, most likely displayed inside an Ethiopian Coptic church, embroidered in cotton with Ethiopian religious symbols and geometric decorations. Cut along the top edge, the back shows evident fragments of wallpaper to which it was originally applied. From an auction house.
