A deep red field carrying two kinds of medallion in alternation down the centre line: large flat-topped hexagons in apricot, cream and sage, each ringed with small square latch-hooks and comb-like appendages, and between every pair a couple of smaller serrated star-diamonds in navy and apricot. Every hexagon is filled differently, with its own arrangement of stars, crosses and rosettes. A tan main border of hooked motifs frames it, with narrow dogtooth guard bands and cream fringe at both ends.
Hand-knotted in wool. Everything is drawn rectilinearly, every outline built from right-angled steps on the knot grid. At 78×305cm this is a runner for a hallway or a landing, and a deep red ground is practical for a space that gets constant traffic. The alternating medallions give the design a measured rhythm along its length, which suits a corridor better than a single repeated motif would.
