A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The dark slate field features a similarly dark octogrammed cochineal medallion, surrounded by four ogival ecru corner pendants. The single-plane arabesque design is accented by irises, a variety of palmettes, and curled boteh leaves. More curled boteh leaves dominate the continuous dark cochineal main border.
