Fiziksel açıklama
Carpet of woollen pile and cotton. WARP: light brown wool; Z3S; 15-16 threads per inch (60 per dm); depressed. WEFT: light brown wool; Z2S; 2 shoots, sometimes 3, after each row of knots; 9 knots per inch (36 per dm). PILE: wool. 12 colours: dark red, red, light red, yellow, dark green, green, dark blue, blue, light blue, dark brown, brown, white; asymmetrical knot open to the left and tied around 2 threads; average 70 knots per sq. inch (1080 per sq. dm). SIDE FINISH: 1 cord oversewn with light red wool. END FINISH: Lower: missing but there is part of a later applied cotton fringe with a single knot. Upper: missing. DESIGN: Field with a brown ground with a row of seven hexagons linked by an arch-shaped pendant. Each hexagon is bordered by dark green or blue/light red/green/light red/dark green lines. The outer one forms a stepped outline on the diagonals. The centre of each hexagon is brown and is divided by a light red horizontal line bearing 2 stylised red blossoms outlined in white. In the centre is a large blue/red blossom with 4 white stylised red blossoms. In each quarter is a multi-coloured rosette and a blue or green and yellow bird-like motif. Some of the hexagons extend into 4 long dark blue stems and flowers. Various geometric motifs are paired across the field. BORDERS (from the centre): (1) narrow red stripe. (2) brown ground with a double, angular meander in dark blue edged with light red. This forms cartouches, each containing a long dark blue stem and a flower. There is a green diagonal bar between every pair of cartouches. In the centre of each pair (alternately the inner or outer edge) there is half a hexagon which has a dark blue border containing white and red florets and a coloured centre. There is a coloured rectangular block opposite this. (3) narrow red stripe. (4) reciprocal diamond heads in light red and green. (5) narrow light red stripe with a central blue stripe. (6) Broad undecorated brown border; there are two pairs of boteh towards the lower end and a single comb-like motif in the middle of the right hand side border.
