Crystal
The Crystal style of banded rugs features a very specific difference: the “wavy” line, produced by alternating two or three different colors of weft strands.
Crystal rugs typically group three bands of wavy lines or a solid color between one or two complex bands. Generally, the complex bands are patterned with squash blossoms, but they may feature other motifs such as arrows, stars, crosses, triangles, bear paws, or diamonds.
