Purchased this rug last year in New Mexico - the woman at the shop said it was a Turkish prayer rug of indeterminate age. It's currently reposing comfortably in my apartment, but I'm eager to find out more information about it. I've looked around online a bit, but couldn't find any easy comparison pieces, and figured I'd try here.

It's roughly 34.5w x 47.5l (excl woven border and fringe). Material appears to be wool. No label or other identifying information. Let me know if more photos or info would be helpful.

Ideally, interested to learn origin, type and age. Any other details or sources for detail (are those elk in the design at center?) much appreciated. Thanks in advance, and apologies for cell phone photos!
