A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The rust field displays a radically asymmetric design of straight, beveled stems, partial palmettes, and geometric, stencil-like small flowers. The top-left corner features a stepped slate motif. The border alternates long octagonal cartouches with partially curled leaves and slate octagons enclosing tridents.
