Square model. The rug is finished along all edges with a faint scalloped edge; along which a repeating pattern of openwork cartouches that alternately small and slightly larger in size. From the smallest one always rises a fine flower tendril that bends over the larger cartouche. From two obliquely opposite corners; a symmetrical and fine line of wavy and curly tendrils develops; with a wide variety of flowers and fine leaves. This pattern blows out from the corners towards the center; and along the sides almost into the other corner. In the remaining midfield there is a scattering pattern of strongly bent flower branches.; anonymous; c. 1900; mixed Brussels; l 200 cm x w 200 cm
