I believe this one to be a 1940's Ardebil. It is a palace size and measures approximately 17 feet by 12 feet. It has a loose weave and a wool warp as well as an overall Herati design. The rug does need some repairs, but has no dry rot, some slightly worn areas, overcasting needed on the fringes, and wonderful colors. Can you help me verify that it is an Ardebil and its age. The rug has been in my friends' family for more than 60- 70 years. Thanks everyone. cartona attached the following image(s):
