I just picked up this little 1m x 2m rug at the local swap meet for $75 bucks today. It seems to be in decent shape and pretty clean. I'm just wondering how old it is and where it might be from. I'd like to enter it into the calculator, but I'm not quite sure how I should set all the parameters. Anyway, thanks for looking and all your help.

It is wool on cotton, handknotted in Iran, north western Hamadan district. These rugs are usually sold with the name "Musel" which describes a rug ca. 200 x 100 cm with low knot count and village design. These rug are not of great value but usually of pretty good quality. Your rug looks like it is in good shape. I always recommend to have a rug professionally washed if bought second hand - you never know what is inside (Bugs, Moth).
