I just picked up a rug from a customer...she was a baby when her parents bought this rug...which makes the rug a minimum of 86 years old. We are not sure if it was new when they got it nor where it was purchased from.

8x12....face yarns worn down to flat in well used areas. Overall in an ok condition though.

There is a cut in the middle of the rug.

Anyone knows the approximate value of a rug like this?View attachment 1698View attachment 1699View attachment 1700View attachment 1701

Yes that really is a pink dominant color. It is a bleeder so that mainly pink color could have been more red than pink before...

Looks like an American Sarouk to me.

Yeah, and the age is about right as well. Too bad that it's worn, has a cut, and has been cut down and machine serged all the way around. These are starting to become more valuable, but this one isn't going to be worth more than maybe $150 to someone that just likes the look.
