A wool pile of symmetric knots on a wool foundation. The open dark field shows a roughly drawn light brown horse with its rider alongside. The delineation of man and beast is decidedly informal and rustic in style. A fringed saddle rug lies on the horse’s back. A teal border with reversing fan palmettes is flanked by ecru line minor borders.
