Hello!

Can you please help me with price estimates of the following rugs. We had them appraised in '92, but since there has been a bit of wear. They have not been out for at least 10 years though.


Bidgar:

Inda, Bidgar Design, 8.11' feet x 12.1 feet "ca 1985"
Wool pike on cotton warp and weft
Main Field: Red Ground, all over classical "Turtle" border

Color: Good
Quality: Good (9/60 quality)
Condition: Good

Replacement = $3,200.00

Damage: (This is not included in the appraisal as the damage happened after the appraisal)
This rug only has a small color stain on the white fringe area. I have it show in the image labeled "bidgar3.jpg"


Keshan:
Inda, Keshan Design 8.1 feet x 12.3 feet Ca.1985
Wool Pile on cotton warp and weft
Main Field: Red ground with blue medallion with arabesques and a covered field. Ivory spandrels with light blue in sets. Classical Keshan or Sha Abbas design.
Main Border: Ivory Ground with serrated leaf vine and flower head design.

Color: Good
Quality: Good (100 knots)
Condition: good(new)

Replacement = $2,250.00

Damage: (This is not included in the appraisal as the damage happened after the appraisal)
There is a little bit of a color run (shown in "keshan2.jpg") as well as small area that has been worn down due to high traffic. shown in "keshan4.jpg"

Photos are attached. We need to sell them, so any help would be appreciated. We don't want to be scammed!

Hello there - Unfortunately, with the color scheme and wear showing on these rugs, I don't think you will find much interest from rug dealers. You might want to try craigslist or the classifieds. If you're offerred as much as $300-400 each for the rugs, I would sell them immediately.
