Hoping that someone can advise as to the identity of the rug and offer some advice. It measures 100 x 140 cm - 3’3” x 4’6” FT. It is wool on cotton rug, and the fringe seem to be damaged. wondering if the value is anything over $100? How old is this rug?. Thank you in advance for any information Ben attached the following image(s):

It is not a Tabriz. I think its a Qum about 10 to 20 years old. It could be Kashan but I cannot quite work it out from the photos. It has the weavers signature "Fathi". I havent heard of him. It is definitely worth more than $100. I would have thought that you would have to pay about $800 in a shop First Floor, unit 9 1 Chandos Road London NW10 6NF UK www.sharafiandco.com

It is a 1990´s Qum Kurk rug. Due to the damaged fringes, I would say somewhere 350 - 450 USD in this condition.
