A near-black graphite ground carries three stacked medallion forms in ivory-white, their scalloped edges enclosing dense fields of small floral figures in brick-red, powder-blue, amber-gold, and sage-green. The medallion framework dominates the field, while an ivory-cream border with warm sand and blue geometric units holds the perimeter. The close-up reveals fine knotting resolving each accent color as a distinct, separate element.
