On the Design:

The mesmerizing all-over pattern features reciprocal geometric motifs in deep burgundy and cream that create a powerful rhythm across the ivory field. The sophisticated border combines coral, golden yellow, and pink in geometric progression that frames the central design. This mid-20th century piece exemplifies the superior Berber weaving traditions, where interlocking geometric patterns creates visual complexity through repetition. The ivory field provides a luminous backdrop that amplifies the contrast between the burgundy and cream triangular forms. Strategic placement of coral accent elements within select triangles add accents that prevent monotonous repetition while maintaining overall geometric discipline. The border demonstrates exceptional design hierarchy with alternating colors creating a transitional design between the intense central pattern and surrounding space.
