A wool pile of symmetric knots on a wool foundation. The slate-colored field features an offset allover pattern of nine full-height staffs, each extending into pairs of petal-like flowers in cream, red, and green. The pattern slightly shifts to the left. The strip-style red main border showcases reversing turtle palmettes, while the ecru minor border includes tendrils, roundels, and small buds. The weave is solid and compact.
