KUVA (Variation C)

Wool, plant fiber (hemp) and silk

An open, unadorned ivory field is left entirely plain, its width flanked by two narrow vertical bands of undulating zigzag lines. Each band runs a tight sequence of black, rust-red, and pale teal wavy stripes, rendered in short, sharp zigzags that repeat evenly from top to bottom. A plain taupe border, slightly mottled in tone, frames the composition on all four sides.

KUVA (Variation B)

Wool, plant fiber (hemp) and silk

An open ivory field, entirely undecorated, is enclosed by a series of concentric wavy lines rendered in rust, indigo, and soft teal, each tracing a rhythmic zigzag around the perimeter. Beyond these scalloped bands lies a plain taupe border, and a narrow outer stripe frames the whole composition. The palette stays restrained and even, with no additional motifs interrupting the calm expanse of the ground.
