My partner purchased this rug for the new home we move into next month and was told by dealer that it was an "old" handmade persian rug.

We are new to this rug thing but my partner liked the colors and how it felt, but I'd still like to know what it is, its age and ballpark on its value.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

The images you posted did not show up properly for some reason, so we had to delete them. Do you have others?

From what I could see on the first pic, this is a typical Bokhara design (i.e. stylized Tekke design) in red colour scheme, looked hand-knotted, possibly Pakistani, not old (as in not pre-1950s).
