    A long ornamental centre gives this rug a clear direction through its olive field. Grey and pale cream details distinguish the pointed contour and its intricate internal drawing. Smaller floral forms occupy the spaces around it. The broad surrounding border carries a closer repeat, with narrow bands separating it from the main interior. Olive varies between yellow-green and quieter greyish passages. Some central outlines remain dark and distinct, while smaller details soften into the surrounding tone. The border is particularly finely divided, giving it a different rhythm from the larger central arrangement.

    Pale marks provide small changes of brightness throughout the field and frame. The combination of an extended central medallion and multiple enclosing bands is a well-established resource within Persian rug design. It allows the broad composition and subsidiary ornament to be read separately. Here, closely related olive, grey and cream colours distinguish the broad medallion from its densely drawn surround, allowing the finer details to emerge through relatively quiet changes of tone.

    Measuring 286 × 190 cm, this rug could bring patterned colour to a study or smaller living area. Cream upholstery would answer its lighter details, while grey furniture could connect with the outlines. Warm wood would sit comfortably beside the yellow-green notes. An exposed section of the long centre would show its relationship to the border, where the much smaller ornaments provide a more intricate enclosing passage.
