The repeat consists of a seated male figure with three attendant figures of lesser scale, the group is complemented by small geese and vegetal or perhaps architectural elements.

The inspiration for the infinitely repeating pattern may have its source in other media, such as architectural tilework. Most Ushak carpets are easily recognizable by their characteristic color palette of rich red, dark blue, and yellow, often highlighted with touches of bright white and fresh green.

Han-ChineseCarpet; XVIII/XIX (1791-00-00-1810-00-00);Face of Half a Double Saddlebag (Khorjin) ca. 1875 The Shahsevan, whose name means "those who love the king," are Turkic nomads. Their historical migratory range reaches from the southwest shores of the Caspian Sea to the southern part of Transcaucasia. Art historians have identified Shahsevan weavings, including a variety of small-format bags, only in the past half century. Many Shahsevan weavings from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, especially those with centralized geometric designs, show a striking relationship with Anatolian carpets from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. These older textiles are called Memling carpets, after the fifteenth-century Netherlandish painter who depicted them in his religious works. The khorjin saddlebags from the Mughan plain (on the Caspian Sea in northwestern Iran), such as this piece, continues the Memling design: it features repeated geometric octagonal medallion motifs with stars and angular hooks that develop from the step-like edges.Skirt, 20th century, 10 15/16 x 15 15/16 in.
