The open field is left entirely plain, its surface animated only by the natural variegation of the fibers, which drift from pale cream to soft tan and warm taupe in irregular, cloud-like patches. A broad, unornamented border in a deeper olive-grey tone frames the field on all four sides, its width consistent throughout and its edges left crisp and straight. The overall effect relies on subtle tonal shifts rather than any drawn motif or pattern.
