It is an Afghan rug. I think you would have to pay about $500 in a shop.

Thank you very much for your help. Is there a way that I can learn a little more about the rug? Is it from a certain region or is there a way to learn its approximate age?

Thanks again,
Neonjohn

A lot of these kind of Afghans are post soviet invasion. Your piece is not more than 20 years old and as such the actual place of weaving could have been in Pehsawar, Herat, Mazar. Basically the miss placement of Afghans resulted in weavers to weave in different places, where they could settle without too much danger of bombing.
