Hello Junia,
I’m very glad that you chose Mearto for your online appraisal,
Considering the photographs, overall pattern, knot density and the colours, I concluded that this is an Entirely Hand Knotted contemporary likely Indian made Oriental Rug. The piece dates back to the period from 1990 to 2020. The piece is not decorated in Turkish style at all, the colour palette is also unrelated to the Turkish tradition of weaving as well as the motifs. The colour palette of the piece represernts the contemporary Indian trend of rugs. The piece is centrally decorated with a circular central medallion which was internally florally decorated as well as the rest of the rug. The central area of the piece was decorated on a shiny Turquoise colour with a saffron frame. The piece central area and the borders were filled with duplicated floral motifs. The borders of the piece were decorated on a deep purple tone. Piece was knotted silk on silk. The fringes of the piece were cut which decreases the value of the piece significantly. The piece's knot density is very high, 1296 Knots Per Square Inch, and therefore the motifs were rendered in good quality, clearly. Made for export purposes clearly. Artistic and collectible value is not very high. The piece is in good condition without visible problems except for the cut fringe.
