Cleopatra Branded Garment Care/Brand Tag

The item depicted is a cream or very pale beige fabric tag, presumably sewn into an article of clothing or accessory, most likely a fur coat or trim, given the visible fur-like texture immediately above the tag. The tag itself is rectangular, with neatly stitched edges. The primary color of the tag is a light, almost iridescent, cream or champagne hue, suggesting a silk or satin material, indicative of a luxury or high-quality garment. The text and graphical elements on the tag are embroidered or printed in a contrasting matte pink or light red color. \n\nThe most prominent feature is a stylized, elongated, leaf-like or possibly lip-like graphic which contains the word "Cleopatra" in a flowing, cursive script. Below this main graphic and text, there appears to be another line of script, possibly a signature or another brand name, which is partially obscured but seems to read "Casan" or a similar word with a prominent 'C' and an 'n' at the end. Above the main graphic, the tag also features smaller, fine-print text, which is largely illegible but appears to be care instructions, further details about the material, or a slogan, beginning with the words "Since 19XX" or "Style Number". \n\nThe visible condition of the tag suggests minimal wear; the fabric is smooth with no visible fraying or discoloration beyond what might be subtle shadows from the folds of the surrounding garment. There are no obvious tears, loose threads, or significant fading of the color in the embroidered/printed design. The stitching holding the tag in place appears intact and secure. The elegance of the script and the material choice for the tag itself point to a vintage item of quality, likely from the mid-20th century, perhaps 1950s-1970s, a period when 'Cleopatra' could have been a popular or exotic name used in fashion.
