It is 7X12 that I purchased from a local party for $1,200. Needs a cleaning, but does the the amount of animals make it something other than a Nain? I read that Nain are counted by LAA the amount of threads in on piece of fringe, but I was unsuccessful in getting an accurate count there Thanks, File Attachment(s): aaaniancoin.jpg (2,577kb) downloaded 32 time(s). aanianbodfull.jpg (2,089kb) downloaded 24 time(s). aaniancornerdragon.jpg (2,510kb) downloaded 16 time(s). aaaniancoin.jpg (2,577kb) downloaded 4 time(s). aaniancenter.jpg (2,672kb) downloaded 7 time(s). aanianbirds.jpg (2,196kb) downloaded 5 time(s). aanianlongmiddleuse.jpg (2,534kb) downloaded 7 time(s). btuma6 attached the following image(s):
