84% Alpaca, 16% Polyester
The surface is composed of fine, even horizontal stripes alternating between slate grey, sandy beige, and pale ivory tones, creating a soft, linear rhythm across the whole. A magnified inset at the lower right reveals the tight, ridged texture of the banding, showing how the color bands sit in narrow, regular repeats rather than blending into one another.

Double-sided
A small sample of plain ivory ground shows two loosely scattered rows of raised, cloud-like tufts in pale grey, set off-center toward the upper left. Dark brown selvage threads frame the top and bottom edges, continuing into long fringe on both sides, while an inset detail at lower right magnifies the looped, uneven texture of the tufted motifs against the flatter woven surface.
Double-sided
A sample of undyed, ivory-toned surface with an open, flatly woven ground interrupted by irregular clusters of raised, looped texture that stand slightly proud of the plane. The pattern of these looped areas is scattered rather than symmetrical, drifting loosely across the field without forming a clear border or repeat. Dark brown fringe finishes both the top and bottom edges, and a circular detail inset shows the contrast between the flat weave and the looped clusters up close.
Double-sided
The field is left entirely open in an undyed ivory tone, its surface built up in a fine, even textured stitch that catches the light in a subtle overall pattern. Toward the center, a cluster of vertical ridges rises in low relief, breaking the uniform texture with a faint architectural rhythm. Long, loosely twisted fringes finish the top and bottom edges, while the sides are closed with a plain woven border.
Double-sided
A predominantly ivory ground is broken by a central cluster of small stepped, diamond-like motifs rendered in soft beige, arranged in three loosely aligned columns. Thin dark threads run at intervals across the surface, creating a subtle grid that emphasizes the thick, looped texture of the weave. Both ends finish in long, dark brown fringe, and a detail inset at lower right highlights the coarse, chunky structure of the surface up close.
Double-sided
An undyed ivory ground is left plain at the outer edges and gathered at center into a series of raised vertical ridges, their looped texture standing proud of the flatter weave around them. Dark brown-black threads run through the structure in fine paired lines, surfacing only intermittently to punctuate the pale surface. Long fringes in the same dark tone finish the top and bottom edges, and a detail inset shows the closeness and irregularity of the looped ridges up close.
The field is organized into vertical panels of varying width, each striated with fine horizontal bands that shift subtly in tone from panel to panel. Colors move through a narrow natural range—sand, taupe, warm brown, and pale ivory—giving the surface a striped, almost architectural rhythm. No border frames the composition; the striped panels run edge to edge, and the selvages remain plain and undecorated.
