Nice Little rug. It is a SIRJAN from south eastern Iran. The City is located on the road between KERMAN and SHIRAZ. It is a tribal area where the poeple of the AFSHAR tribe make their rugs. Most of them are brought to SIRJAN and from there they go to TEHRAN for Export. Your rug is not handknotted, it is handwoven (Kilim). The wool is handspun, the Colors are vegetable / natural Colors. The design is called "tree of life".
