A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. A visual pair to rug # 28768. Still another Malayer Herati innovation with three synchronized columns of fringed, open diamond with a usual attendant of palmettes, rosettes and bent sickle leaves, all on an abrashed pale grey blue ground; and set within an ecru “tangerine flower” repeat border.
