Katagami stencil with a design of roundels containing paulownia flowers and another motif, possibly pairs of birds facing each other. against a background of fine stripes. Tie bars are used to hold the stencil structure, these would be covered over by paste applied by hand or through a second stencil so would not appear on the printed textile. This stencil is of the sansun okuri or koban size class (determined by the repeat length).
