Yes, this is a Persian Bakhtiari (or Bakhtiyari)rug, of a medium grade made by the tribes of "Shalamzar", perhaps around 60 years old with a cotton foundation and a wool pile. The majority of Bakhtiar rugs have pretty much the same number of knots per square inch, and as mentioned above, yours is a medium quality, but a decorative piece. They handle traffic very well, just try to keep the dust out by regular vacuum cleaning at least once a week, and you will have a good-looking rug to enjoy for many years.
