Woven wool rug with a simple design consisting of a brown field with nothing in the center. It has a simple border of rosettes and leaves and each corner has been blocked off so that the center of the rug has a diamond shape. The edges are bound in brown and at one end of the center panel there are three marks woven into the rug. The ends of the rug are also worn and reduced in some places.
