Hi, first time posting and I'm pretty new to the Persian Rug world.

I recently bought what was described at auction as an "Old City Varamin" carpet and I was looking for more information about the carpet- I'm curious about the birds especially- whether they have any meaning/history or are they just a folly. And any comments on the colors... I hadn't planned on buying this one, and I honestly can't remember what the auctioneer said about it other than it was from just south of Tehran and he hasn't seen one for sale in years. No idea if that was true or was just being a salesman, lol. Once they displayed it I noticed the birds and the festive colors and went for it. Thanks for any and all comments!

It is a Veramin. This city is located south of Tehran, ca 1 hour driving south east.Typical design with the all over rapport, Good wool quality and some silk in it. But it is not so unusual and it was made in the 1990 - 2000. Nice Color combination.

I'm curious what sort of value on this? I paid $1300- did I pay too much? Fair price? A great deal?

Thanks!
