A deep burgundy field of leafy sprays and small palmettes in gold, sage, grey-blue and pink, around a lobed ivory medallion outlined in blue-grey, with a fine rosette at its heart and small pendants above and below. The burgundy reaches out into the corners in lobed arms, leaving gold and ivory spandrels of soft arabesque. An ivory main border of blue-outlined cartouches, small palmettes and leaf sprays runs between narrow guard stripes, closed by a royal blue outer band and silk fringe at both ends.

Hand-knotted in silk. The royal blue outer band is the only strong blue on the rug; inside it, blue appears only as the pale blue-grey outlines of the medallion and the border cartouches. At 59×78cm this is an extra small rug — a bedside, a side table or a wall piece.

100% silk pile, hand-knotted in Qum, with silk fringe at both ends. Silk is strong in tension but delicate in every other respect — it abrades, it marks with water, and it loses lustre permanently if treated like wool.

The burgundy field is forgiving of small marks; the ivory medallion, corners and border are not, and between them they cover a large part of the rug. The royal blue outer band sits against the pale fringe on both ends, which is where colour movement from water would show first. It is best on a wall, a bedside or a table rather than underfoot.

The two strongest colours on this rug never touch. The burgundy of the field is warm and deep; the royal blue of the outer band is cool and bright; and set directly against each other, colours this saturated would vibrate along the line where they meet. The ivory border is what prevents that. Look at how wide it is compared with the rug, and how quiet: pale ground, soft cartouches, the blue used only as a thin grey-blue outline. It works as a mat between a painting and its frame, giving the eye somewhere neutral to rest between the burgundy inside and the blue outside. The same buffering happens at the centre, where the ivory medallion sits in the burgundy with a blue-grey outline, and in the four corners, where the burgundy gives way to soft gold and ivory. Every time the warm red is about to meet something strong, a pale colour gets there first.
