The field is organized in wide horizontal bands alternating between slate-blue-gray and a heathered taupe tone, each stripe rendered in a flat, textured weave. There is no distinct border separating the field from the stripe pattern; the bands run edge to edge, terminating at both ends in loose, undyed fringe. The palette stays within a narrow range of muted blue-gray and warm gray, with no additional motifs or inscriptions visible.

The field is composed entirely of horizontal bands separated by narrow dark gray lines, each stripe often split into two offset color blocks rather than running edge to edge. Colors shift irregularly across olive green, teal, dusty rose, lavender, purple, and pale gray, giving the horizontal structure a staggered, brick-like rhythm. There is no border; the striped field runs to the flat woven edges, finishing in loose warp fringe at both ends.

The field is composed entirely of diagonal zigzag bands in shifting tones of green, forming a repeating chevron lattice that pulls the eye upward. Two diamond-shaped medallions of small triangles break the striping, their ivory and teal accents standing out against the greens. A narrow plain border in dark green frames the composition with no additional ornament.

The field is organized into irregular rectangular blocks of rust, sage green, and pale gold, each striated with fine horizontal color variation and scattered with small angular fret-like motifs in cream and brown. A cluster of stepped, geometric shapes in gray, gold, and rust gathers in the lower left corner, breaking the otherwise orderly grid, while the border is reduced to slender bands of blue-gray and terracotta along the outer edges.

The field is dominated by a stacked column of interlocking teal chevrons that zigzag downward through horizontal bands of pink, brown, and cream striping. Flanking side borders in coral and salmon carry angular geometric glyphs resembling stylized letters, while the top and bottom guard bands display a stepped meander in brown and tan. Cartouches in each corner bear woven inscriptions, with "1932" and "1933" appearing at the lower and upper edges alongside the letters "V" and "Λ."

The field is composed of an irregular patchwork of rectangular color blocks in mustard yellow, seafoam green, taupe, and dark brown, over which a network of pale ivory branching lines spreads like cracked lightning or root systems across the entire surface. A plain ivory border frames the composition, edged with a slim dark brown line. The branch motif runs continuously over the block divisions, unifying the fractured ground into a single overlaid pattern.
