A crimson field carrying twelve lozenge medallions in a single column, each drawn in sea green and cream with an eight-point star at its centre and small hooked devices around it. The medallions meet point to point so the column reads as one continuous chain, and the crimson survives as triangular pockets to either side. Deep multi-band borders of diamonds and rosettes in cream, rose and navy frame the whole, and cream fringe finishes both ends.
Hand-knotted in wool. The sea green is unusual in this weave, which normally works in cream, apricot and black against red — a cool colour against a warm ground gives the medallions more separation than a warm one would, and is why the chain reads clearly from standing height. At 78×296cm this is a runner for a hallway or a landing, and a crimson ground hides everyday marks well.
