I picked up a few rugs today. The first has a tag that says wool on wool made in morocco. Can anyone verify age? I assume its within the last 10 years. Any value in this rug besides the 10 dollars I spent on it? Thanks! File Attachment(s): 253.JPG (1,680kb) downloaded 4 time(s). 255.JPG (1,310kb) downloaded 4 time(s).

Please try uploading your images again to the forum thread as opposed to third party sites. It may be the server here was slow or the image size you have is large.

This appears to be a Moroccan made rug as you note. These are easy to mix up with some Turkish pieces, although generally the braiding is thicker using more warp strands in Moroccan + the pile is often not as crisp and clear in design.
