I need help identifying this rug I recently purchased at an estate sale. It has been cleaned and is in very nice condition. It measures 35" x 58" excluding the 1 & 1/2" fringe at either end. As you can see in one picture, there is a cloth label stapled to the back that reads 147 x 87. It seams like a very nice quality rug. I think it is Bokhara but I don't know. Thank you.

This is a Persian Bluch with wool foundation and a wool pile, typical of this type. The pattern is called "Boteh" and it looks like it is in a good shape, seems to be around 60 years old and if there are no signs of repair and worn spots, $200 will be a fair market value for it.

Let me just add that the numbers in the back are just the measurement in centimeters.
