Identification notes

The listing describes a woven brick or city-wall motif, not a printed or embroidered pattern, and offers the cloth as one complete piece.
The 1950s–1960s date and Chongming origin are listing attributions rather than documented provenance; the exact maker and production year remain unknown.
