A wool pile with symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The pale grey field features a multiply-nimbed, half-length figure of ‘Ali, gesturing and holding a Koran. Off-white, grey, charcoal, and orange-ochre details accent the design, with an identifying inscription in the halo above. The piece is framed by an old gold strip-style border with leafy scrolls.
