A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The straw-sand field defers to the ivory medallion while adopting the same allover small Herati design. The slate blue-green and cream corners do the same. Eleven patterned borders with an ecru central strip style stripe band showing a geometric turtle pattern. Generally reduced palette enhances the rugs versatility.
