Not sure what this one is. I saw it at auction and bid on it and won on it. I know it is not a good idea to buy an auction rug without seeing it, but it looked intriguing.
Can any one tell me what you think it is and it's age. I wont get it until Thursday, so these are all the pics I have. Could be Turkish?...but the selvege does not seem right? Any help is appreciated. It measures 142 inches by 61 inches.

Nick is right. Check out this link on Spongobongo:
Sorry, can't get the SpongoBbongo link to work. So I am attaching a snapshotof the page instead.
I also see what Nick meant about the brown in the lower part of the pic.

Looks like Lori or Nahavand to me, I'd expect Kolyai to be a better quality than this?
