On the Design:

This design enjoys a play of ombre (or gradience) and stripes in rich colors underscores the piece—though polychromatic in its beauty, favoring aubergine purple, brown, and mauve tones among the many at play. Keen eyes will further admire the subtle look of abrashed patina and striation within the stripes—an intricate and thoughtful revival of the classic look of Kilims and similar pieces brought to a more livable, modern quality. less
