The intricately composed floral and boteh (paisley) motifs display an exquisite palette of pink, blue, yellow, and brown, creating a harmonious composition of color and movement. The primary border, set against a deep navy ground, features angular geometric motifs in vivid tones of green, red, and brown, offering a striking contrast to the light field. Guard borders in a warm saffron yellow are adorned with stylized red flower heads, adding depth and vibrancy to the piece.
