A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. This modern, borderless photographic pictorial shows two quizzical domesticated cats peering out from a jungle of leaves and stems. Photo-pictorial rugs are a relatively recent Tabriz innovation, with each knot functioning much like a pixel on a computer screen.
