The design has both horizontal and vertical symmetry that is apparent in both the field and the main borders.
This impressive antique room size rug has formal corners in the field, but they are not carried out in the manner of traditional bracketed corners.

Several paisley boteh motifs can also be found throughout the field and incorporated within some of the floral design elements. The boteh is what is known modernly as the paisley and literally translates as bush or shrub. It has been used as a traditional symbol to mean many things throughout Asian and near Eastern cultures.
