There are virtually no small devices to divert attention from the main motives. The ivory border is in the classic star and bar pattern .in Kazak rug #121001 the medallions are both green, while here they alternate dark blue with green. In # 121001 animals people or stylizes flower are scattered about while here the design is more austere.
