Thanks for your response. It must be low end machine made, there are several flaws. Oh well, it will be durable enough to put in front of the back door.

Looks like a very fine hand made Persian Baluch kelim to me. But it would have been easier if there were more photos especially of the whole thing. First Floor, unit 9 1 Chandos Road London NW10 6NF UK www.sharafiandco.com

Really? I will post more pics. Is there particular photos that would help decipher what kind of rug this is?

Preferrabley of the whole piece, as with the small photo that you have posted one can only guess, especially as it is a flatweave as well and it appears to be a sumak weave. It is always useful to see the whole of the design. First Floor, unit 9 1 Chandos Road London NW10 6NF UK www.sharafiandco.com

We acquired a low quality version of this in a runner... was that horrible that we dyed it bright purple/pink as an experiment.
