Hardly subtle at all!
A strip of embroidered silk drapery/upholstery samples originally in very subtle shades of ivory and cream. The scroll strip was seamed in a gradation of 5 shades of the light colors. Yet the overdye is very dominant, the original gradation is gone.
This mornings sun helped in showing the shine of the silks in contrast to some of the walnuts in the background!
