What does this mean?

Hello, this item is a large Oriental-style wool carpet, likely made in China around the late 20th century, inspired by the traditional Aubusson or Savonnerie designs of France. The rug features a dense, hand-tufted floral medallion pattern on a black ground, with pastel tones—ivory, pink, sage, and rose—along the borders. This design style, while categorized as “Oriental,” is more accurately described as a Chinese interpretation of European neoclassical rug aesthetics, often marketed globally during the 1980s–1990s.

Measuring approximately 130 x 96 inches (3.3 x 2.4 meters) with a 3/4 inch pile, the carpet remains in good structural condition aside from worn fringes and surface dust, which can be resolved with professional cleaning. These rugs are not typically hand-knotted but hand-tufted, which affects long-term value retention. Given its size, materials, and condition, the fair market value would be approximately $250–400 USD.
