The field is composed entirely of horizontal bands, no border framing them off from the field. Broad stripes of taupe and warm brown alternate with narrow bands of dark charcoal, the widths uneven and hand-drawn rather than mechanically regular. A fringe of loose warp ends finishes the lower edge, with a narrow dark stripe running just above it.
The field is arranged in horizontal bands of varying width, each carrying its own small-scale motif: rows of stacked diamonds, chevrons, dotted lattices, and zigzags in orange, mustard, ivory and charcoal against pale grey grounds. Flanking this banded field are wide side panels of dense, irregular flame-like striping in rust, black and cream that read almost as a separate pattern from the center. The rug finishes with plain grey end bands and loose warp fringe, one corner showing a twisted, tasseled cord left hanging free.
The field is composed entirely of horizontal bands running the full width of the piece, alternating between broad stripes of ochre, seafoam green, and deep brown, each interrupted by narrower registers of small-scale pattern in pink, cream, and lavender. Motifs include elongated lozenges, chevrons, zigzags, and rows of tiny diamonds worked in fine polychrome detail against the plain colored grounds. Both ends finish in loosely knotted fringe, with no separate border framing the composition, the stripe sequence itself carrying the design to the edges.
An open ivory field, textured with a fine allover striped weave, is left plain aside from two narrow bands near each end. Each end carries a thin line of small red dashes followed by a wider red and dark brown geometric border of repeating diamond forms before the field resumes; fringe finishes both ends.

A deep indigo-black ground is crossed by five horizontal bands of ornament, each filled with tight zigzags, diamonds, and small stepped motifs worked in faded rose, ochre, and cream. Narrow black rectangles left open between the bands create a grid-like effect, framed by matching patterned side borders and plain dark end panels.
An ivory ground carries three vertical lattices of brown diamonds formed by interlocking zigzag lines, flanked by open cream margins on either side. A stepped, crenellated brown border runs along the sides, contrasting with the plainer top and bottom edges, and the lower end finishes in loosely knotted blue and cream fringe.
A large open diamond lattice, drawn in dark brown, dominates the ivory field, its lines bristling with small serrated projections along the outer edges. Scattered diamond and lozenge motifs in the same dark tone fill the field both inside and outside the central diamond, arranged in loose, irregular rows rather than a strict grid. Narrow plain dark stripes frame the field on all four sides, with the fringe left long and undyed at top and bottom.
A long narrow runner built entirely of horizontal registers, each band carrying its own dense pattern of small diamonds, zigzags, and stepped lattice motifs in a subdued palette of rose, ochre, cream, and deep aubergine. Toward the upper section a run of stylized animal figures appears within one striped register, set apart from the surrounding geometric bands. The end finishes show a plain dark selvage band framing the patterned field, with the overall surface reading as a stacked sequence of individually treated stripes rather than a single unified field and border.
An open field of graduated orange and red tones, brushed with subtle bands of ochre and rust, is overlaid by an irregular diamond lattice rendered in undyed ivory-and-brown flecked yarn. The lattice loosens and elongates toward the lower register, breaking into freestanding zigzag chains rather than a strict repeat, giving the composition an improvised, unbalanced rhythm. Loose warp fringe remains at both ends, with a plain woven band closing the top edge.
The field is organized in horizontal bands alternating a pale ivory ground with darker brown-black stripes, each register filled with small diamond, lozenge, and star motifs in coral orange, mustard yellow, soft green, and cream. A vertical central column of larger diamonds runs down the length of the piece, punctuated by a few isolated dark blocky shapes near the lower end. Narrow striped bands finish the top and bottom edges, ending in loose warp fringe on both sides.
