A pale celadon field is overlaid with a fine trellis of intersecting diagonal lines, each diamond compartment centered by a small dash motif rendered in soft ivory and mauve tones. Pale ribboned garlands of blue and yellow flowers, tied at intervals with looping bows, run along all four borders against a muted sage ground, framed by narrow ivory guard stripes. Two corners of the field show a brighter, almost golden sheen where the light catches the surface differently from the rest of the ground.

The sage-green field is scattered with a small repeating diaper of gold fleur-de-lis and shield-like emblems set among a fine tone-on-tone leafy vine pattern. Two gilt cartouches with foliate scrollwork sit side by side near the center, their interiors left blank as if awaiting an initial or crest. A deeper teal border frames the field, edged with a delicate gold guilloche and laurel-swag band running along all four sides.

An open ivory field is worked with tone-on-tone scrolling acanthus and strapwork, left almost bare at center to let the ground read as blank. The border, more slender at the sides than at the corners, is composed of loose garlands of pink and cream roses, small blossoms and olive-green foliage that swell into fuller floral bouquets at each corner.

An ivory field is covered with symmetrical scrolling acanthus tendrils in soft beige and taupe, interlaced with garlands of small pink roses and scattered floral sprigs. The border is composed of a rust-red band flanked by a repeating cream acanthus-leaf scroll, framed by a narrow plain ivory guard stripe. The overall palette stays muted throughout, with only the border's terracotta tone offering contrast to the pale field.

50% Southern Cattail, 50% Cotton

The field is composed entirely of fine, tightly packed horizontal ribs in warm straw and pale ivory tones, creating a subtle striated texture across the whole surface. No border, medallion, or figurative motif interrupts the plain banded ground, which reads as a continuous, uniform stripe pattern from edge to edge. A close-up inset reveals the individual ribs curving slightly and alternating in tone, giving the flat surface a quiet, rhythmic variation of light and shadow.

The field is left entirely open, its surface built from horizontal bands of tan, straw, and pale gold that shift subtly in tone across the width. Fine vertical ridges run the length of the piece, catching light differently as they cross the softer horizontal striations, giving the ground a quiet, irregular movement. A detail inset shows the individual rounded strands bound tightly by thin pale cording, revealing the segmented, tubular character of the material up close.
