Tibetan temple hanging

A large temple hanging, depicting a painted dragon on yellow silk. The fierce beast with flaring whiskers and mane, writhes sinuously through the firmament, clasping pearls of wisdom in each foot. Constructed of 3 conjoined silk panels, plus a wide cotton suspension panel. Tags to sides, patches, stains - extensive signs of use but wonderful!
