No other pieces with this shape are known,
and its function is a mystery. The warps and wefts are uninterrupted
through the unpiled area in the center, and reinforcing wefts have
been added. The open-to-the-left knots and the depressed warps
suggest a Salor origin; the knot density is within the lower range
for Salors. The piece lacks the elegance, though, generally
associated with that attribution. Any thoughts concerning this
piece’s function and origin are welcome!
