Initialed "ah"
Signed "Brita Grahn"
The field is organized into repeating vertical columns of interlocking triangular and diamond forms, each column shifting through soft tones of grey, sage green, straw yellow, and dusty lavender. Fine dotted lines trace the diagonals within the triangles, giving the geometric pattern a subtle textured rhythm. A narrow plain border in slate blue frames the composition on all sides, with a thin dark line just inside its edge.

'Reliefflossa' (knotted pile in relief)
A grid of rectangular compartments organizes the ivory field, each panel filled with a nested-square medallion outlined in soft grey against the pale ground. Alternating bands between the squares carry chevron and zigzag lines radiating outward, while the narrow outer border repeats small square medallions at intervals along its length. The palette stays close to undyed tones, with the grey outlines providing the only real contrast across the surface.
A long narrow runner divided into large, sweeping abstract shapes rather than a bordered field and center. Bold curved and angular forms in periwinkle blue-violet, mustard yellow, dark brown-black, and cream interlock across the surface without repetition, creating an asymmetrical composition from end to end. The edges show plain flat selvages with no distinct border framing the design.

An overall diamond lattice fills the sand-colored field, each compartment centered with a small polychrome blossom in rust, mustard, teal, and blush pink. The border repeats a related trellis of tiny florets on a soft lavender ground, framed by narrow rust and dusty pink guard stripes. The pattern is dense and regular, running edge to edge without a medallion or open center.
Signed 'MG' (Marta Grahn)
An open golden field is scattered with small floral sprigs and star-like blossoms arranged in loose diagonal rows, rendered in soft blues, rose, and cream. A scalloped ivory band frames the field, followed by a broad slate-gray border and a slim patterned guard stripe at the outer edge. The corners are left plain, allowing the wavy inner scallop to read as the field's true boundary.
