Fiziksel açıklama
Carpet fragment from upper right of the field with a top and right-hand side border; vase technique. Design: field: a dark blue ground with a broad lattice of curving pink and yellow stems bearing, from the lower end, a large blue blossom, a yellow and then a red, and against the border, half a cream blossom and half a blue. Beneath the stems, in the upper half, are a cypress tree and a flowering tree; above the stems are two large sickle leaves - the lower curves to the left in overlapping blocks of colour, while the upper leaf is primarily yellow, has a serrated edge and contains a long floral spray. Elsewhere there are balls of two interlocking colours and part of a dark pink cloudband as well as smaller flowers, buds and sprays. Main border: a dark pink ground with a floral meander of a slender green vine bearing a blue, cream-centred palmette that alternates with a green and pink rosette. Inner guard stripe: a reciprocal 'Y' design in red and cream.
