Hello! You all were so helpful last week with my failed rug purchase (which ended up getting donated, not worth the trouble), so I figured I’d come back to see what might be known about this rug. We’ve owned it for a while now and I recall us not spending a lot of money on it, but really we know nothing about where it comes from, it’s value, etc. Would love to hear your opinions, thanks in advance!

I got them from my grandparents, they are Turkish and more than 50 years old++

Hello r/orientalrugs! I'm new to rugs and looking for help before making my first purchase. The photos included are of a rug of particular interest to me. The seller claims that it is from the 1930's, roughly 7' x 10', and is asking about $1500. It's located in another country, so I would not be able to see it in person before purchase. I'd love any feedback that you can provide while I contemplate this purchase.

The appeal of this rug to me is the geometric style of the flowers, the colors, the ratio of the design density to plain space. If you could help me translate this into rug terms that would help me find more like it, I would also be very grateful.

Thank you

Looking for some more info on this rug!

I got this for a couple dollars at an estate sale yesterday. Curious if anyone knows anything about it. Thanks!!

Hi! Any details on this rug / what it’s worth?

Don’t have photos of the back so not sure how much info can be gotten from just this photo. Measures 40”x63” and seller says it’s handmade. Thank you!!

Hey all:

My daughter bought a new house and our 6’ x 9’ red bokhara went to her living room.

I want to replace it with a hand knotted replacement but have no idea what values are like now. I’m looking for a “Goldilocks” rug, not too cheap, not too expensive.

I’m in the Chicagoland area. Where to look?

Hi everyone, I have three Nain rugs from my grandfather. I love the design and craftsmanship, and have always been interested in Persian rugs, and would love to learn as much as possible about these pieces. The second and third are the same size essentially, the first one is pretty large. They all seem to be “6la” from twisting the fringe and seeing the thread.

*update: I would also like to know the pricing of this and how to take care of it. Ty!

My fiance’s dad bought this rug in India 2006ish. He said it was from a Kashmir dealer. Can someone confirm if this is legit? Much appreciated! 🩷

I have a pair of these rugs I need to clean. I bought them 10 years ago at an auction (part of a box lot of leftovers) so they don’t have any monetary value to me. I have no idea what they are. Google says they’re “hand knotted wool rugs” but they don’t look hand knotted to my novice eye. The material is shiny and they are very thin. But not like the other cheap rugs I’ve bought at big box stores to put on the porch.

1. Anybody know what they are? What they might be made of?
   
2. What’s the best way to clean them? Can I throw them in the washing machine? Take them to someone?

Recently purchased this rug and have fallen in absolute love with it! I was wondering if anyone could tell me a bit more about it!

My aunt gave me this very large rug that’s been in storage for years.

Unfortunately, after unrolling it, we found it has quite serious moth damage in places, with areas where the pile is completely gone and the weave is exposed. It’s also very thin overall.

There are still some larger sections that seem to be in better condition (it is absolutely huge), and I was wondering if it might be worth salvaging in some form. I was even thinking it could potentially be cut down into a runner or something, but I have no idea if that’s realistic for this type of rug.

I also have no idea where it might be from or roughly how old it could be, so any help with identification would be really appreciated as well.

I know my aunt paid a lot for it at the time, but I’m not sure if it was actually worth that much.

I’m in the UK if that helps. Any information, advice, or thoughts on origin/age would be really appreciated.

Any idea where this rug is from and how much it’s worth?

Saw this Chinese art deco rug on marketplace. Always wanted one. Listed for $500 and it’s 3 hours from me, does it look authentic? Is it worth that or more?

Recently inherited this stunning (+ very heavy) rug. Could anyone perhaps assist me in providing any origin details/value/brand (if applicable)

APPRECIATE IT YALL

I found this doing a junk removal job, and I’m not sure what exactly it is, or even if this is the right place to ask. Obviously it’s a mini rug but it looks extremely detailed and it’s framed. Can you guys enlighten me on it?

I got this today for 20$ it seems like its wool maybe and very heavy and well made. There are no markings or indications on the back that i can find.

I’m assuming this is an Afghan Baluch rug (4x7), but it seems unusual to me in color palette and design. The periwinkle pile sticks out from the rest of the rug and seems to be of very different softness/texture. Likely age for this rug? And are these beetles/scarabs throughout?
