I'd appreciate comments on the rug in the attached photos. Its dimensions are 3'6" x 5'9". Thank you.

Thanks. Yes, it certainly looks like natural wool--but do you have any idea where it might have been made?

I actually think it may be Persian. How did you acquire.

I bought it on ebay. Seller used one of those all-encompassing descriptions: "antique Persian Karacheh Serapi Heriz Caucasian". It doesn't look like any Heriz I've ever seen.

Well, the seller claims it's an 1880s antique. But I take all his datings with a grain of salt. Thanks, Cartona.

No on age - every bit of 35 years, but certainly no more than 1950's and that would be very, very liberal
