Does anyone have any information on this rug. I bought it in Ankara, Turkey while stationed there a few years ago. I beleive that it's Wool on Wool. I was told that the time that it was a Hereke double knotted rug. The size is 78" x 124". The edges on two sides a curling as is evident in the photos. Thank you.

I believe you were given the right information. It is a very pretty piece. To correct the curl make the edge area where the curl is damp and roll it up making sure it is rolled properly Nd it should straightened it out.
