A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a wool foundation. This tribal piece features a slightly reduced palette and showcases two similar tripartite pole medallions in ecru and soft red on a blue-grey field. Large petal flowers line the center, while smaller botehs, octagons, rosettes, and flowers fill the field and medallion poles. The main sand-colored border displays reversing paired botehs, complemented by an inner stripe with highly stylized birds.
