This item is for
sale at an elderly widow's house. She said she thinks it is 50 -60 years old, kept it upstairs in a bedroom. I think it is an old Senneh..but older..1930's??? These are her pics and I have not seen it, so sorry for the resolution. Can you verify what kind and how old. It measures @ 6 ' by 9' and she says very heavy.

Nick.,

Thank you very much. She wants $400 bucks. For a 6 by 9 , totally in tact, 1930's that's not bad I think.
I'll see this rug tomorrow.

Thanks!

Sounds like a bargain unless something badly wrong with it (or machine-made).

From the picture I would say not older than 40 years.

Thanks everyone for your comments and feedback. I never got to see the rug (pile). Someone left a deposit on it and bought it before I had a chance to see it. Ah, just as well,... not as old as I thought it was.

I agree wit KAD at most 40 years old. I have a strong feeling that it is Bijar weave as opposed to a Senneh weave. Cheap at double the price
