Annamese Mandarin Square depicting two lions

8

Annamese Mandarin Square depicting two lions. Silk. Embroidered. Purchased from J. S. Letcher, 52-23-110A. University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology © 2016 Penn Museum

Not Chinese, possibly Annamese, otherwise a simple folk embroidery. On (faded) red satin, neither square split; two smaller lions with embroidered ball below; as sorted folk symbols, different combinations on each.
