I was given this rug by my parents when they retired and moved to a smaller home. I've been using it in a child's bedroom, but I'm thinking about trying to sell it as it really does not fit in with the style of my home. I am a complete novice when it comes to rugs, but in as far as I can tell it is hand-knotted - it's fringe is part of the rug, not sewn-on, the binding on the sides goes through the rug and minor inconsistencies are observable, it does have some minor inconsistencies in knot height, and it passes the malleability test with a satisfying flopping sound and is foldable. It is about 8 feet by 10 feet, and it's design is primarily dusty pink, dark red, medium blue & dark blue flowers in a geometric tile-like pattern, on an ivory background. I would appreciate any guidance on what what kind of rug this might be and if it is of any value. Thank you so much!

Unfortunately your photos, especially of the back and knots is not very clear, but from what I could see it is a production piece but very difficult for me to say where its from. It seems to be relatively fine and certainly will have some value. Sorry I can't be of much more help
