This Amman Ullah Khan Rug features a more excited expression. His feet aren't 'crossed' as in other rugs, and instead are both pointed towards the left. Helicopters and planes sit above his shoulders while tall flowers grow from the ground. Three layers of guard stripes containing flowers and lined geometric patterns frame the field. Bright green accents are found throughout the field. |
