A dense all-over diamond lattice runs across the full field in ivory-white and cool steel-grey, with burnt terracotta-rust bleeding through from beneath in irregular clouds that pool most heavily at the perimeter and fade toward the centre. The close-up confirms a low, tightly compressed pile with a matte, slightly coarse wool surface. No border. The terracotta edge reads as a frame the field generates itself. Made in India.
