Unusual level of detailing and fine quality for type, albeit reduced in size. Colors and shades include: Dusty cranberry red, pomegranate red, pale cochineal red, sky blue, powder blue, coffee brown, dusty bronze, sand, beige, and more. Condition notes: Mostly even wear across to knot heads. Most of the original side cord selvages are intact or restored. Fully secured sides and ends. At some point in its past this carpet had been professionally reduced from it's original size and length, likely in longer proportions as the end border on the reverse side of the carpet shows interior reduction and concealed inseaming and signs of adhesive. The work is quite convincing on the face of the carpet. Some adhesive is visible on the reverse side of the carpet. Recently professionally cleaned ready for in-home use! Many years of enjoyment to come with this hand knotted Persian Lilihan rug made in Persia circa 1930's vintage. See less
