New to this forum..can you help with the value of the attached rugs? They were purchased in the early 1990s in Incirlik, Turkey. Seller stated that they were Qoms. They are each about 3'x5'. Thank you!

It is iranian origin, pile and warp are silk, but it is not qum - but sold as qum. Real origin is Bonab near Tabriz. The black weft that is visible between the knots is made of nylon. Same problem with Tabriz rugs that dont lay flat (mostly Mahi Tabriz).
