metallic threads
Help me identify this fabric?

I am selling this skirt on ebay and I don’t quite know how to describe it. I know it’s paisley and i know the fabric contents are 36% COTTON, 23% METALLIC THREAD, 21% RAYON, AND 20% SILK. It’s not a flat type fabric, it’s kinda like woven and a little scratchy. The gold thread catches the light and it shimmers. Here are a few pics. Thanks!

It looks like it’s probably a jacquard woven of some description. Call it a “novelty weave” and list the fiber content and you should be ok.
