An open, undyed ivory field is anchored by a single brown totemic figure at its center, a triangular-skirted form topped with a cross-bar head, rendered in the same deep brown used for the surrounding motifs. Scattered around it are three simple vertical bars, small diamond and chevron shapes near the sides, and faint touches of red, yellow, and blue picked into the wool as accents. Zigzag bands in brown run along the top and bottom edges, framing the composition, with plain woven end-finishes and long warp fringe left at top and bottom.

An unbordered field in undyed ivory pile carries a lattice of brown diamonds formed by intersecting diagonal lines, their edges softened by the long, shaggy surface. Small irregular flecks of brown and rust appear scattered within the diamonds, some centered, others off-axis, giving the grid a loose, hand-drawn quality. The composition runs uninterrupted to the outer edges, with no framing border, leaving the diamond trellis to stand alone against the pale ground.

An open, sandy-toned field is overlaid with a continuous lattice of thin red diamonds running edge to edge with no central medallion or border to interrupt it. The high, uneven pile catches light unevenly, giving the ground a mottled, cloud-like variation between beige and pale ochre. Both ends finish in loosely knotted fringe, with a narrow band of deeper plum-red visible along the top selvage.

The field is covered edge to edge by an all-over lattice of ivory diamonds set against a mottled ground that shifts from deep olive at the top to warmer tan and brown tones below, with scattered flecks of rust and blue-gray within the pile. A plain narrow band frames the field on all sides, and at the top edge a striped flat-woven finish in cream and burgundy is visible above the fringe, with matching fringe left loose at both ends.

An open cream ground carries an overall lattice of brown diamonds, drawn in a loose, hand-felt line that shifts slightly from row to row. A single narrow band near the top edge, patterned in small polychrome checks, offers the only concentrated color, framed by plain outer guard stripes. The piece ends in long, undyed knotted fringe at the top.

An undyed ivory ground carries a repeating lattice of large flattened diamonds outlined in soft brown and gray, stacked vertically down the length of the field. A single small diamond medallion with a checkered infill breaks the sequence near the top, and irregular touches of black speckling appear where two of the diamond outlines meet mid-field. The composition runs border-free to the selvages, finishing in a plain warp fringe at both ends.

The field is organized entirely in horizontal bands, alternating broad stretches of undyed brown ground with narrower stripes of orange and red, and interspersed with several bands of a running diamond and chevron pattern in cream, orange, red, and dark brown. There is no separate border framing the composition; the striping runs edge to edge, terminating in loose warp fringe at both ends. The palette stays within earthy browns and tans set against warm orange and red accents, with small touches of ivory and black in the diamond bands.

The field is divided into stacked compartments filled with jagged triangular and diamond forms in coral orange, sage green, and cream, interspersed with dark brown angular motifs resembling small figures or animals near the upper corners. Loosely drawn geometric borders frame the composition without a strict repeating pattern, and the piece finishes with plain warp fringe at both ends. The overall palette stays within soft cream, muted coral, and pale green tones, with scattered dark accents providing contrast.

An open ivory field is overlaid with an irregular brown lattice of diamonds, punctuated by scattered solid lozenges in orange, green, black, and rust. Toward the lower third, small stemmed flower motifs in green, orange, and dark brown rise from the diamond trellis, giving that section a more figurative character. Narrow guard stripes of alternating orange and brown blocks frame the piece, with plain warp fringe left visible at both ends.

An ivory field is overlaid with an all-over trellis of thin brown diamonds formed by crossing diagonal lines, the lattice running edge to edge without a distinct border. The pattern compresses into a tighter band of small diamonds along the lower end, and the field otherwise remains open and pale, with the natural undyed warp fringe left plain at both ends.
