Hi Jerry,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
I have handled a lot of Oriental rugs and would characterize the condition of this carpet as "fair" rather than "good," with fading and wear from nearly 100 years of use.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:

A vintage Iranian hand-loomed wool Sarouk carpet
after 1935
Of typical Sarouk design, with a central medallion in red, blues and creams on a red ground with blue and white spandrels, within red borders.
9 feet 6 inches by 12 feet 8 inches
CONDITION: In "fair" condition with wear from age and use; losses to selvedges. Value assumes no odors, stains, repairs, tears or losses.
PROVENANCE: Inherited
$700-1,000*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.

Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto.
