Looks like a professionally "aged" rug from Kayseri. If you see a rug "100 years old" rug with worn pile and long fringes like this, all alarm bells should be ringing in your head. Attractive colors and design, but most likely not that old. Usually the fringes wear a lot faster than the pile, and if it was used on the wall, it wouldn´t have wear at all.
