    Alpaca Wool and Silk 

    A pale ivory ground is left largely open, its surface catching light in soft striations that shift with the angle of view. Slender branch-like tendrils in a warm taupe-brown trace a symmetrical, mirrored pattern across the field, meeting and crossing at the center and corners like interlaced twigs, punctuated by a few small circular accents in a slightly deeper tone. A plain narrow border in a matching taupe frames the composition without additional ornament.

    Indoor & Outdoor

    Color: Stone

    Material: Polypropylene

    The field is left entirely open, a solid expanse of grayish stone tone broken only by fine, closely spaced horizontal ribbing that runs the width of the piece. No border, medallion, or other motif interrupts the surface. The inset detail reveals a dense, looped texture with thick, rounded knots forming a uniform, corded grain across the ground.

    Indoor & Outdoor

    Color: Blue

    Material: Polypropylene

    The field is left entirely open, an unbroken expanse of slate blue-gray with no border, medallion, or repeating pattern to interrupt the surface. A diagonal, ridged texture runs consistently across the entire piece, catching light in subtle striations. The detail inset shows the surface at close range, revealing a chunky, twisted construction with flecks of lighter gray and taupe threaded through the dominant blue tone.

    Indoor & Outdoor

    Color: Sand

    Material: Polypropylene

    The field is left entirely open, a single expanse of sand-toned surface without pattern, border, or ornament. A diagonal ribbing runs consistently across the entire ground, giving the plain surface its only visual texture. An inset detail shows this structure magnified, revealing tightly twisted, rope-like ridges arranged in parallel rows.

    Rush Mat

    A circular format in a single undyed straw tone, the surface built from tightly braided strands that spiral outward from a small central medallion in concentric rings. No border is set apart from the field; the plaited construction itself reads as pattern, its texture emphasized in the accompanying close-up detail. Coloring stays within a narrow range of tan and pale gold, with subtle variation coming only from the natural striations of the material.

    Swedish Flatweave

    A large open field in a solid mauve-purple tone occupies most of the composition, left plain apart from a faint vertical seam line running down the center. Bold zigzag bands appear at the top and bottom edges only, each built of interlocking chevron rows in mustard yellow, ivory, deep plum, rose pink, and near-black, giving a dense, saturated frame to an otherwise quiet ground.
