Dear Floyd,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a Perian rug with the measurements of 12 x 12 feet. The rug was made out of wool and cotton and in the second half of the 20th century. The pattern is not complete visible but this rug could be a Ghom or Sarouk rug.
This piece is in medium condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 400 to 800 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
