A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. Plain triangular straw corners firmly position the slate-brown field, which features a Herati design with a central pole of fringed lozenges and flanking clusters of bent leaves, rosettes, stem segments, and botehs. The straw-colored main border showcases triangular and octagonal stylized palmettes on a trapezoidal meander.
