Hi I have just picked up a second hand rug, which claimed to be Turkestan, hand knotted and 100% wool? Anyway, it was bought as a floor filler so not for collection or resale and as so i spent about £200 including delivery. I know nothing about it other than it was FILTHY and I liked the colours! I've taken some pics from the dark side after a good clean.. any info would be gratefully received.

Oh and it is 6'8" by about 10'8"

Thanks
