A pale silver-grey field carries a horizontal wave structure drawn in terracotta-rust and cobalt-blue, with both colors running in irregular, flowing lines across the surface. The centre reads as the lightest point; cobalt-blue and rust concentrate most heavily at the perimeter, thinning as they move inward. The close-up confirms a low, tightly compressed wool pile where the three colors sit interlocked at the fiber level. Made in India
