Seems like forever since I've posted photos of old rugs so me thinks it's about time. The rug below I've had on my flash drive since 2018 and haven't shown it until now as I was hoping to learn more about it. That hasn't happened so will share all I know...it was being sold at Christies. No info on size, provenance or age. But I do like it.
