1970 Kashan, Iran. About 500-700,- Euro in Germany (in good condition), in USA maybe more.

Looks more like a Tabriz but for $500 I hope you have a fast car.

This is a 1970s Iranian Kashan. The signature says Kashan, Mahtab Rug (the style is written up top in yellow and underneath it says the manufacturer, Mahtab). Retail something like this in this size (if in excellent condition) would probably go for about $3-4K right now. The weave is good. Permanent stains would be the downfall (price-wise) of this rug.

Thank you all for your valuable suggestions. One more quick question, for me this rug looks faded on one end compare to other end, is it supposed to look like that or does it have any problems? And asking price for this is $1700/-. Is it too much? And approximately how much I need to spend to clean this size rug? Thanks.

The prize of 1.700,- USD isn´t bad...but if there really is sunfading i wouldn´t spend any money.
This kind of rug do we have a lot here in Hamburg, in the States i think too. Look for another one...this is my opinion.
