11'2" x 15'9" Rug of unknown origin or maker. Appears to be a handmade rug. I belief it is wool, many appealing colors, red is the main color with turquoise, dark blues, creams and splashes of green. Fairly good condition, only one spot that I could find that seemed worn down, about 2" x 10" spot. Still very soft and vibrant. 256 is the knot count.
It was in the home of my husbands step father who is from a very prominent family.
