An ivory field carries a lattice of scrolling vine work supporting large palmettes and cusped medallions in rust, plum, gold and slate blue, arranged in a symmetrical vertical progression down the length of the piece. The main border, a deep indigo ground, repeats a rhythm of angular blossoms and serrated leaves in the same rust and gold palette, framed by narrow guard stripes of small-scale floral trellis.

An open field of soft camel supports a dense lattice of palmettes and serrated leaves in ivory, rose, and dusky rose, interrupted midway by a horizontal band of muted teal-green that shifts the rhythm of the pattern. The main border, a rich rust ground, carries alternating palmette and vinework medallions in cream and pale gold, framed by a narrow ivory guard stripe patterned with small rosettes. Colors throughout remain soft and slightly faded, giving the surface an even, weathered warmth.

Mahal

An overall lattice of palmettes and serrated leaves spreads across a rust-colored ground, connected by curling vine stems in ivory, slate blue, and sage green. The deep indigo border repeats alternating rosettes and angular palmettes within narrow guard stripes of cream and rust, echoing the field's palette. The pattern runs edge to edge without a central medallion, giving the surface a continuous, all-over rhythm.

An ivory ground carries an allover lattice of scrolling vine and palmette forms in muted gold, rust, and soft green, with large rosette medallions scattered across the field and slender cypress-like sprigs rising near the lower and central axis. A wide border of repeating palmettes and angular blossoms in matching tones frames the field, flanked by narrower guard stripes of small diamond and rosette motifs.

An ivory field is scattered with sprays of rosettes and serrated leaves in coral red, soft blue, and gold, anchored by a small central medallion of interlocking petals and echoed by two large palmette forms set diagonally near the corners. A wide indigo border carries a repeating rosette-and-vine pattern in the same warm palette, framed by narrow guard stripes of meandering floral vine on cream and rust grounds. The proportions are nearly square, and the ground color has faded unevenly, leaving pale, almost bleached passages within the field.

Mahal

The rust-red field is covered in a dense, repeating lattice of small floral palmettes and serrated leaves in blue, ivory, and soft green, radiating from a central medallion-like burst that is only slightly emphasized within the overall allover pattern. A wide indigo border carries a rhythmic sequence of angular blossoms in coral, mustard, and cream, flanked by narrower guard stripes of small-scale floral vinework on matching dark grounds.

Mahal

The rust-colored field is covered edge to edge with a repeating lattice of small rosettes and star-shaped blossoms in ivory, blue, gold and olive, without a distinct central medallion. A dark chocolate-brown main border carries a undulating vine with palmettes and serrated leaves in the same palette, framed by narrower guard stripes of ivory and green vinework. The design maintains an all-over, even repetition from corner to corner, with the small tag reading FJHAKIMIAN.COM visible in the lower left corner of the photograph.

An overall floral lattice fills the pale ivory-green field, with vinework connecting rosettes, palmettes, and small blossoms in rust, dark navy, and soft khaki. The main border presents a repeating cartouche and rosette pattern in matching tones, flanked by narrower guard stripes of stylized florets. The palette throughout stays muted and warm, with the ground color shifting subtly from sage to tan across the surface.

Mahal
