I have 2 rugs that I cant identify. The big one I think is Turkish. Any input would be wonderful.

The larger of the two rugs is a Kelim (flatweave) from Northwest Iran. The inscription says Firouz Rezayi, with a date that looks like 1350 (right now it is 1390 in Iran).

The last two pictures are a mystery to me. Is pic #4175 the back of pic #4172? They look like two different rugs, except for the bird design. With a few more pictures or some clarification, I might have an idea on that one.

Thanks for input. I will try to get some more pics of small rug, It might even be a tapestry the way one end is tasseled and the other has a loop running the length. The pics are of the same rug, drastically different from back to front. maybe the front has been bleached by the sun. Is that possible?
