A possibly unique pair of silk meditation mats decorated by the so-called brocade square pattern, a design based on the patchwork of silk brocaded textiles. Here we see a pattern composed of three different brocade designs, framed by the pattern of the inner square, thus creating a pleasing three dimensional effect which can be fully visualized when joining the two mats close to each other.
