Can anybody help me identify this rug with what it is and how much it might be worth? We want to have it professionally cleaned if it has any value. The size is 12'9" x 9'4". We were told it might be a French Textile Jacquard but we can't find anything on it. The previous owner said it was purchased in England approximately 30 years ago as an antique rug at that point. Here's the link to images on photobucket: http://photobucket.com/greenandbluerug

Thank you for your help!

This is a machine-made textile. Jacquard is a type of weaving done by machine. I definitely believe that it is 30 years old, but it seems to me that this was more likely closer to new when the previous owners purchased it, rather than antique. The color scheme isn't in keeping with antique French textiles, that I'm aware of. I'm sure this piece has a decorative value to it because it pleasing to the eye (but that is beyond my rug expertise.
