Gholtogh rugs are [[Geometric Design|geometric]] and most often have a [[Medallion Design|medallion]] layout. The design characteristics of many Gholtogh rugs are a large hexagonal medallion with a second, smaller medallion in the center. Often, the larger medallion extends to the top and bottom horizontal borders. The designs are tribal, with flower heads, Star motifs, lozenge shapes surrounded by Hook motifs, animals, birds, and other primitive designs covering the field and medallions.<ref>Moheban, 2015, p.207</ref>
