Hello, I've had this rug for quite some time now. It came from a family member but no one in my family can recall when or where it was purchased. Please let me know if what I've got is of any value and what the type of rug it is called. Any help is greatly appreciated, please ask if you need more photos/information. Thank you!

I am not sure where this rug comes from, but it is a machine made and not worth much.

Not worth much as in less than $100? The rug is quite large.

Machine-made rugs drop in value as soon as they are out the packet. They older or more use they have had the more their price drops. New this rug would probably cost a few hundred dollars if it measures around 2.35 x 1.60m.

As Little-Persia says, machine made rugs normally do not have a resell value. I would say, if you find a private buyer for it, you could perhaps get $150 for it.
