The five-part design of this cuff band became popular in the sixth century and is found on garments of both silk and tapestry weave. At center the bust of a woman, probably a personification, fills a roundel; she wears a colorful, ornamented tunic. To either side a vine scroll with birds and gazelles fills the double registers. The border of the band is formed by a series of interlocking leaves, heavily outlined in black - a frequently occurring motif in early Islamic art. The juxtaposition of highly stylized vegetal forms (the leaf border and the vine scroll separating the double registers) and flattened, two-dimensional figures (the woman's upper body) with more rounded, naturalistic forms (her head and the surrounding animals) is characteristic of art produced from the sixth to the eighth century.
