Hello, this appears to be kashmiri / Indian to me, although these images are quite in low resolution so it is difficult to say

please confirm slight color run on either side of medallion on ivory portion brown tone --> ivory. Also, I do not see a photograph of the fringe, I think there may be an issue with the server in displaying it if it exists. Can you post that in your next reply?

Do you have anything higher resolution? The image appears quite small. Perhaps only 600 pixels at the widest and some distance from the subject. Kindly see the required images for the forum - For your rug, specifically numbers 2 and 3 in the link below. And please do see if you can upload larger resolution

I think it is a Qum. Compared to shop prices you have got a good deal, but if it has issues then it depends on what they are.
