Hi all,

about thirty years ago, my mother bought this carpet at the auction of the furnishings of an old villa.
The auction catalogue reported "Anatolian rug". I believe it was made in XIX century.
Can someone help to identify the specific kind of rug? I looked for similar rugs in websites, but I was never able to find a rug even remotely similar to this one. I also visited recently a factory of Armenian rugs in Yerevan, but again there were not match with this one.
Thanking in advance,

Michele from Italy

I was able to find the catalogue of the original 1985 auction, and it is listed as: Sparta, Anatolia.
(I know that Sparta is also called "Isparta".)
The rug was already quite worn in 1985, so I doubt it is 1950/60. It looks quite older.
Anyway, I was not able to find any "Sparta" or "Isparta" rug similar to it on the Web.
