For Auction ... * Vintage Oriental Rug * 9 ft. x 12 ft. You are looking at an used, yet very nice oriental inspired rug. Simple, yet elegant and classy floral design!! The colors are faded, as I tried to show with front and back views in the pictures. The colors seem to be faded to beige shades, but might have been originally mauves and greens. The blue color does not seem to have faded much. T is some wear areas that I tried to show with close-up pictures. No holes or tears!! T are 2 tags stapled to the back corners of this rug. Another ebay member shared with me that these are tags from when it waslast cleaned. See pictures for close-up views of these tags. Unfortunately, I do not know very much more about this rug. I have been told that it was handmade between 1930-1950; and that it is silk. An ebay member shared with me that they have a rug just like this one. Their rug was a wedding gift for a family member in the 1920's; and were told that it was 75 years old at that time; which would date this rug to late 1800's!! Origination was China/Tibet; and the materials are wool and silk (wool has faded, silk has not). They also shared with me that in 1990, the rug was appraised at $2500 and has the same signs of wear that this one does!!! None of this information is documented, but maybe this tells you a bit more about this
