A wool pile with symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The rich old gold field features five staggered columns of independent green flowers in vases. Along the edges of the field is an implicit inner border in herringbone style. The scarlet strip-style border displays a green meander surrounding elibelinde-style (hands-on-hips) humanoid flowers. Moderate weave. Particularly well-drawn for a rustic rug.
