We are currently in Frankfurt and had the opportunity to go to KAD's store and meet 'KAD' and his wife. In the tradition of the RugRag, KAD spent a lot of his time showing us his rugs and educating us on them. My friends were spell bound and we have some new recruits. As a result, my friends who live in Frankfurt want to know more about what their rugs are that belonged to their family over ther last 50 years. I believe I correctly identified one of them, but this one I am not sure about. It has a back and border reminiscent of a Kashan, but not the design or the fringes. I believe its red color to be the cochineal red, so I assume it is from the eastern part of Iran. Please help me identify it. I believe its age is 1960's. The rug measures @7 x10.

Hi, thank you for your visit - it was a pleasure having you and your friend coming to our shop in Lohr. I hope you enjoyed it. Your friends rug is a 1950's Ghiasabad Sarough of very good quality. It needs a good wash and a little fixing on the fringes as it seems from the pictures. If your friends would like to have done - I will be visiting customers in Koenigstein and Kronberg on Tuesday and could take a look at their rugs.
I hope you have a good time here in Germany - best regards to your friends.
