Here's an interesting rug featuring a big tree with birds and flowers. I'd appreciate anyone's comments on its likely origin, age, and value. Dimensions are 5'2" x 6'10".

Thanks, KAD. I love this rug and would never consider selling it. When I bought it, it was described as a Gabbeh from South Persia--probably Qashqai or Luri. It doesn't look like any Gabbeh I've ever seen, however. Would you call it a Gabbeh?

Beautiful Shiraz, lovely colours and I think it has an auction value of about $1000.
