I attach two images of a 5 X 7 Turkish carpet I bought a number of years ago when visiting Turkey. Unfortunately I have no details of the type etc. I may have overpaid, somewhere just under $ 1000 but currently want to know more details of the type they are and their indicated value as I am considering selling this and some other carpets.

I'd appreciate any feedback that can be offered.

It's a Turkish Kayseri (pronounces Kai-ser-ay I think) rug. Turkish wool on cotton. One of the common Turkish designs. As most people do when visiting Turkey you probably paid too much, £1000 a number of years back was probably the retail at the time.
