Aubusson Carpet

The field, in a deep brick red, is filled with an offset lattice of alternating circular and octagonal medallions, each ringed in cream and pale blue and linked by wreaths of pink roses on olive-green stems. A wide chocolate-brown border carries a continuous garland of pink and orange blossoms, framed by narrower guard stripes of similar floral sprays on cream and dark grounds.

Bessarabian Carpet

A deep brown ground carries a vertical column of three large floral bouquets in rose pink, coral, sage green, and cream, each cluster distinct in composition, with smaller sprays of flowers and trailing vinework filling the corners. The border combines a meandering floral vine on a matching dark ground with an outer band of small polychrome diamonds and lozenges on a pale field, finished with a plain warp fringe at both ends.

French Aubusson Runner

An elongated, open ivory field is organized by a fine linear frame into a chain of interlocking floral medallions, with a central oval cartouche enclosing a loose bouquet of pink, blue, and cream blossoms. Scrolling acanthus corner ornaments and small urn-and-garland motifs punctuate the four corners, echoed in a narrow border of continuous floral swags on a pale ground. The palette stays soft throughout - buff, celadon, dusty rose, and faded gold - giving the whole surface a muted, almost bleached tonality.

English Needlepoint

The field is organized as an overlapping lattice of interlocking quatrefoil medallions in cream, red, blue, and lavender, each cusped compartment centered on a small painted rose or bud rendered in pink, ivory, and crimson with sage-green foliage. A dark chocolate-brown border frames the composition, filled with a chain of oval and round cartouches, each holding its own rose spray against cream, red, or blue grounds. The corners repeat the cartouche motif at a slightly larger scale, tying the border rhythm together at each turn.

Turkish Kilim Throw

The field is composed of narrow vertical panels joined edge to edge, each woven in an even checkerboard of undyed ivory and warm brown squares. The alternating blocks shift slightly out of register from panel to panel, giving the overall grid a subtle irregular drift rather than a perfectly aligned pattern. There is no border; the checked surface runs directly to the cut, slightly uneven edges on all sides.

Persian Needlepoint

A scalloped, lobed-edge piece organized around a central deep blue octagon inscribed with gold Hebrew lettering, flanked by four rose-pink panels each carrying further gold script. These are set against a dark maroon ground patterned with angular geometric bands, all framed by a wide sage-green border decorated with stepped chevrons and leaf-like devices, edged in a narrow gold outline.

Moroccan Wool Rug

An open, unbordered field in a pale taupe ground is crossed by irregular brown diagonal lines forming an uneven trellis of diamond and triangular compartments. The lines are drawn with a loose, hand-traced quality rather than a precise geometric grid, and the flat, plain-woven selvage at top and bottom shows a slightly darker brown tone against the fringe.

Moroccan Wool Rug

An undyed ivory field of high pile is crossed by a simple diamond lattice worked in low relief, the intersecting lines forming a grid of large, softly irregular diamonds across the surface. The plain narrow border repeats the same pale tone, with a flat woven selvage along the sides and a fringed edge top and bottom, one end retaining a looped tie. A detail inset shows the texture of the lattice against the deeper surrounding pile.

Moroccan Wool Rug

An undecorated field left open except for a raised diamond lattice formed by the deep pile itself, each cell puckered into a soft cushioned relief in shades of ivory and pale camel. Narrow dark brown bands frame the top and bottom edges, and the piece finishes in long, loosely twisted ivory fringe with knotted ends at each corner. An inset detail shows the density and shagginess of the pile against the flatter woven selvage.

Moroccan Wool Rug

An all-over ivory field is worked in long, shaggy pile that has been carved into a diamond lattice, the raised diamonds left plush while the connecting channels are cropped low to define the pattern in relief. The palette stays within a single soft cream-gray tone throughout, with no border framing the design. Both ends finish in loosely twisted fringe, knotted into tassels along the lower edge, and a small braided hanging loop appears at one corner.
