The gentleman told me it was Navajo, American Indian. He was a little startled when I said "No, it's not!". My guess was that it is a Shirvan Kilim. Am I right??? Any thoughts about age? Value? Condition is pretty good, it needs a bit of attention at the sides and ends but nothing gross is wrong with it. Size is about 59" X 104". My guess about the age is 1900-1925, but I am not certain about that. I like it, which is probably why I still have it. In any case, your opinions are always appreciated.

Colors remind me of an told Shirvan, but some of the design motifs remind me of a Sennah. ..probably early 20th Century. Kilims are Nick's speciality. ..I wonder what Nick thinks.
