Hanging

gold brocade square, badge of military rank, with lion in green, gold, blue and red, sejeant on a ground of loose cloud forms. Below, rolly waves dotted with some of the eight precious things. The square was woven in two sections and is now seamed together. This is a square of military official rank, and since it bears the lion it may have been worn by a member of the Second Rank.
