SEAT COVER IN SILK KESI

The dragon medallion is reminiscent of an archaic bronze or jade medallion. The seat area is a stylized lotus. The part of the seat near the feet is a kylin , the Symbol of the Judges. The colors are very vivid and close to the original colors with the exception of the black which has become lighter.
