The palette is defined by a striking contrast between rich madder red and a deep, inky indigo, a characteristic feature of the region's finest dyes. The central field is densely populated with repeating lozenge and star motifs, creating a powerful visual rhythm. The skillful use of this saturated blue color rugs foundation anchors the entire composition.
