A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. In the general Tibetan mode, a plain tangerine-rust abrashed field displays a flayed, opened-out tiger skin complete with head, tail, and limbs, rendered in tawny and sand tones. A main beige border with characteristic voluted modules frames the design, finished with a plain tangerine-rust outer surround.
