A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. To be viewed sideways, the rust field shows a partially reversed still life of flowering branches in stylized container vases. A pale blue border with rosettes, thin linear branches, and corner diamonds frames the field. The partial field reversal allows the piece to be viewed equally from either side.
