hi mosaic, cool finds

The kerman I would watch out for. It looks to me like the outside border was removed the entire length of the carpet. Very, very bad for value if this is the case.Shame on you If this rug were in excellent condition, it would be pretty valuable. It is clear by the pic on the bottom it's almost threadbare in one area... Generally speaking without though outside border, the value is just in aesthetics, not the fact that it's a persian kerman. Much less $$$.

The sarouk looks interesting, although it does show some signs of wear. If it doesn't come down to condition, it comes down to price. How much do they want for each?

That Kerman was a really nice looking rug.

As for the other CL rug, I can't quite tell if it is Karastan, but it very well could be. Looks interesting, if it were a Karastan rug, some of them do sell very well on eBay if you know what series it is.
