Hello,

We are going through my grandmother's estate and she has several "Oriental" style rugs. We'd like to know whether these are of any value and if so, what might be fair for them. Any information about where they are from or about their quality would be amazing. Thank you!

Hello and welcome to forum!

All rugs appear hand knotted

1st appears to be kashmir silk from India perhaps 1980s,
2nd appears to be southern kurdish / afshar rug maybe antique from 1910,
3rd / next the same carpet,
4th Hamadan Sarouk in finer weave but not quite the expected quality of true Sarouk, around 1950's
5th Good Lilihan 1920/40's,
