Swedish Rya

A dark brown field centers on a white urn-form vase from which a symmetrical bouquet of pink, coral, and mustard flowers rises, flanked by clusters of bloom sprays. Above the vase a woven inscription in rust-colored letters reads a name and the date 1927. The surrounding border is filled with a dense zigzag pattern in coral, sage green, ochre, ivory, and dark brown, framed by a plain tan outer edge.

Sultanabad

An overall herati-type lattice fills the field with small rosettes and serrated leaves in muted blue and ivory against an olive-brown ground. A pale camel border carries a repeating floral vine, framed by narrower blue and dark guard stripes on either side.
