Description:

A collector’s piece featuring a rich, shaded sumac-red field densely adorned with timeless tribal iconography - including symbolic eternal knots and delicate stylized flowerheads. At its heart lies a striking central axis of three radiating medallions, each encasing the coveted stepped sandyg (chest) panel, deeply rooted in traditional weaving folklore.

The central composition is beautifully anchored by a classic ivory and sky-blue 'running-dog' border, framed by refined carnation-motif minor borders and simple su (running water) guard stripes. A superb example of geometric harmony and authentic tribal craftsmanship, perfect for both distinguished interiors and textile art collections.
