A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The light slate-grey field features a 2/1/2 arrangement of floriated botehs, with ample plain reserves along the sides. Smaller, rounded and hooked botehs fill the remaining space. A strip-style straw border frames the design with octagonal reversing turtles, small rosettes, and boteh leaves.
