The shirt is made of two layers of a thick cotton material, which are quilted together with lines of cross stitch, running stitch, two-sided line stitch and paired running stitch. The stitches are worked over four warp and four weft threads in various orders. The material is made with paired weft threads and single warp threads, which, when stitched, causes a rippled effect.
The TRC also has other Pashai embroidered garments, namely two women's caps (TRC 2000.0116 and TRC 2000.0117).
