Hand knotted in high-quality wool, the rippling field design employ pairs of highly stylized mirrored Boteh, representing flame and the universe, in rustic earth tones matching the distinguished combination of copper brown, beige, and teal and ocean blue. Framed within mirrored inner and guard borders in the same chilling blue, the middle border is tactfully distinct from the rest of the geometric-floral portrait with sweeping iris palmette patterns symbolizing rebirth and rejuvenation, adding to the naturalist, immortal themes of the piece. less
