A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The abrashed rust-red field is centered by a slightly flattened bone “moon” medallion, with four open, flower-defined squares at its cardinal points. Four polychrome pomegranate stems appear nearby. The multiple borders include an innermost T-fret reciprocal, a band of cloud heads, and an outermost band of slanting colored strips.
