An ivory field drawn edge to edge with a fine flowering vine — palmettes, rosettes, serrated leaves and small blossoms in rust, brick, teal, moss and cream, worked so closely that the ground shows only as pale gaps between stems. A lobed medallion in rust sits at the centre with a pendant reaching from each end, and the same brick tone returns in four large corner spandrels and in the narrow band that separates field from border. A near-black main border of palmettes and flowering vine frames the whole, with several hair-fine guard stripes and cream fringe at both ends.
Hand-knotted in silk at 36/36 quality — 36 knots to the inch in each direction, close to 1,300 to the square inch and around 2.8 million in the whole rug. The pile carries a directional sheen, so from one end the ivory reads warm and creamy and the rust comes forward, and from the other the ground cools towards pearl while the teal foliage lifts instead. At 94×160cm it suits a bedside, a study or a small seating area. The ivory ground is unforgiving of spills, so it is happier away from where food and drink are handled.
