An allover lattice of stacked chevrons and zigzagging diagonal bands covers the field in tones of taupe and oatmeal, interrupted by pale blue-gray lines that trace a secondary, more open diamond pattern across the surface. Small diamond and stepped motifs appear nested within some of the larger chevron peaks, adding fine-scale detail without breaking the overall diagonal rhythm. A plain narrow band frames the composition, left undecorated in the same ivory tone as the ground.
The field is left open, filled edge to edge with a fine grid of short, irregular dashes forming a subtle basketweave-like texture in muted sage green against a pale ivory ground. There is no border to speak of, the pattern running uninterrupted to all four sides, with faint tonal variation where the green deepens slightly toward the center.

A pale straw-yellow ground is overlaid with a grid of thin brown lines, each cell crossed by diagonal lines meeting at a central point to form an X within every square. The border is left plain, with only a narrow flat band framing the field, and the geometry runs uninterrupted to the edges without a distinct corner treatment.
The field is organized into a grid of squares outlined by fine grey lines, each cell filled with a slightly varying tone of cream, straw, and pale gold that gives the surface a subtle checkerboard shimmer. A plain narrow grey band frames the composition on all sides, with no additional border ornament. The overall effect is one of quiet tonal variation rather than pattern, with the grid itself serving as the sole decorative device.
An unbordered field carries an interlocking geometric lattice of narrow rectangles and stepped bars, rendered in soft taupe-brown against an ivory ground. The pattern repeats edge to edge without a framing border, reading as a continuous architectural grid rather than a bounded composition. Subtle irregularities in the drawing of the small rectangular links give the overall symmetry a hand-marked variation.
A taupe field overlaid with a fine diamond lattice supports eighteen concentric-square medallions arranged in a grid of three columns and six rows, each square rendered in muted tones of gold, sage, grey, and ivory with a small notch at its crown. The wide outer border repeats a dense pattern of small squares in cream, gold, and near-black, interrupted by a secondary band of solid gold circles set against the same taupe ground.
Salt & Pepper Color
The field is filled edge to edge with an interlocking geometric lattice of gray triangles and diamonds set against an ivory ground, arranged in repeating rows that form a hexagonal網 grid. Slender vertical bars pierce the points of the triangles at regular intervals, adding a small rhythmic accent within the larger angular pattern. There is no distinct border separating the field from the outer edge, allowing the lattice to run continuously to the perimeter.
