I purchased this rug for $60 from a local individual. Went for another rug which I didn't want, but they pulled this one out. It was the ladies husband's before he passed on.

42'x71". A old label, see bad picture, states it is a hand knotted made in Pakistan. Hoever, the label also list the size in inches so I assume it was a rug being prepared for the US, and the origin may or may not be true.

Thick pile, no smell, a two inch cut in the back with no gap in pile The label states wool pile

What is the origin or type and age, if you would be so kind,

Thanks

wool on cotton rug hand made in Pakistan. It's not too old, maybe within 20 years. Good deal
