A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation, the well-abrashed grey-blue field features a somewhat centralized allover pattern of petal palmettes, ragged palmettes, stems, and quadruples of barbed leaves. The ecru strip-style border is laterally balanced, displaying informal palmettes interspersed with straight, oblique stems adorned with florets and leaves. An attractive modern recreation of a timeless and desirable aesthetic.
