Framing this central design is a radiant border featuring meandering rosettes and intricate motifs in shades of cobalt blue, red, and beige. This ornamental border not only anchors the central field but also adds an extra layer of sophistication, echoing the floral themes within the design while creating a harmonious transition between the rug’s intricate interior and its structured edges. The precision of the knotting and the vibrancy of the dyes, all natural and vibrant jewel-tones, speak to the skilled craftsmanship and enduring quality of this antique piece.
