A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The slate-brown field features closely packed, reversing rows of connected floriated botehs. The botehs align neatly at the ends and are cleanly halved along the sides. A straw-sand strip-style border frames the piece with fish leaves, rosettes, and squared-off reversing turtles.
