Dear Forum,

I'd appreciate a price estimate, age, and name of this rug as I'm thinking of buying this.

Rug size: 10' X 6'
Rug condition: Good, full pile, but some spots needs cleaning.

The sell toold me it is an antique Kermen.

Best,

Ben

Im not too familiar with kerman of this vintage. I would honestly say 25 year old chinese before saying Iranian but it could be iranian. it's very rigid like a metal loom and has other characteristics of chinese rugs. either way, this is def. not an antique (100 years old) and would highly doubt it's age being in excess of 30 years old. these are 1980's colors in conjunction to what I see as possible other country of origin curious to see what others say...

RugPro. You are right by saying this rug is about 25 years old. It is something we call Pakistan Lahore. Price should be around 200,- $ in used condition on Ebay (in Germany). Washing will be 100,- $.

Chris, you know, now that you mention it I see you're spot on with Pakistan.
