Hello,

So I think this is a lilihan from the 20s or 30s (please correct me if I'm wrong). What I'm trying to understand is the condition of the rug. The fringe is a little rough, and some warp is showing I think. I can get the rug for 2650, which is perhaps high, but I enjoy it's character and like over dyed styles. What do you guys think?

Seems somewhat reasonable as long as the rug is not brittle anywhere, and ends secured. It does not appear as though the latter has been done. The darker greenish tone toward one end is a bit of a surprise.

Yeah, I think sun light must have bleached it on one end. That's a little distressing.

I do like tribal designs, I may keep looking, as the design here isn't exactly what I want.
