A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The beige-camel field presents nine and a half disjointed, large, twisted strapwork infinity devices, with the loops containing crosses or guls. Details appear in pale green, abrashed tangerine, ecru, and red. A narrow red border carries S-forms shaped like swans. A very striking design in an unusual format.
