Each band has two strips of dark bark on a downward diagonal and a centre strip of dark natural bark on an upwards diagonal. Together the strips form a zigzag design. The border around the edges of the mat is formed by a double line of dark strips through the warp, crossing at the corners. The edges are finished by overcasting on a core of cedar bark. The mat is sewn together in the middle on the weft axis.
