This is the second rug I got, but Not the one I bid on with the Indo Tabriz. Same size approx. 60" by 42". Well, it's bright and I assume Chrome dyes and has very thick, long pile. Looks like minor tip fading in one area. At first I thought Yalameh from the design, but it isn't fine enough and the weave may be more Meskin or Koliai?? Any help appreciated. BTW, the one I expected to get looked like a Moud and had a Starburst pattern that emanated from the center and looked really distressed. All in all, not a bad catch for such a low price of $66 for the pair. Thanks all.

It is a low quality Hamedan, if I remember correctly it is called Khamseh. The wool and dyes are not very good and not much value wise.

Sharafi,
Thankyou...knew it was low quality with harsh dyes..thank you for identifying it for me. Guess my $66 was about as much effort as it is taking me to get it.
I may make it a present to my sister..for her kitchen maybe.
