The wool warp-faced plainweave ground is decorated with a variety of weft-float stitches. It is most unusual to encounter a sampler (wagireh) incorporating sections of borders, botehs, quincunxes, and serrated zigzags on this fine red ground, complemented by even finer, wide flatwoven side finishes. The red used in the pattern is slightly lighter than that of the field.
