Burgundy Boteh

The piece

Burgundy Boteh lines up neat rows of small boteh, the curled paisley motif, across a deep burgundy field. Around it runs a wide sand border of stylised flowers and vines in peach, sage and rust, set between several narrow guard stripes and finished with a thin burgundy edge. The strong red centre and pale frame make it an easy fit for a dining room, a study or a warm, traditional living room.
