A cream field centred on one long column medallion with a stepped, notched outline in green and red, edged with a row of small dotted beads. The column is built in sections: a gold octagon at the centre framed by a band of small rosettes, chevron panels in red, navy and ivory above and below it, and two navy octagons at the ends filled with hooked S-shaped devices. Small tribal motifs — crosses, rosettes, hooked figures and little squares — are scattered across the cream ground, with triangular spandrels in the corners. A wide red main border of geometric motifs runs between guard stripes of small red and blue rosettes, with a short fringe at both ends.
Hand-knotted in wool. The column is symmetrical end to end: the two navy octagons mirror each other, and a chevron panel sits on each side of the gold centre, so the medallion reads the same from either end of the rug. At 79×127cm this is an extra small rug — a doorway, bedside or small hallway piece.
