Shops Handmade 21

Product Name: Shops Handmade 21
This is a mid-century Turkish or Caucasian rug. It is hand knotted with all wool fiber on a wool warp and weft. Many Persian rugs are wool and cotton and some Turkish and Iranian rugs have a silk base but comparatively few. The design is geometric in nature and the dyes used are not synthetic. It is a country rug not made in a city factory but likely made by one person on a home loom. It has three borders surrounding. It is a salmon color with white, green and brown. This rug is in very good condition for its age, has no spots worn to the foundation and has no stains. This rug has approximately 80 knots per square inch making it a coarse to medium fine woven rug. It features a tree of life design and four animals, probably camels. I have been selling on eBay for 24 years and have 100% feedback under the name Acanthus. Oriental rugs need not be so expensive but be aware of machine made rugs as well as factory made hand-tied shops rugs using petrochemicals and poorly paid labor.
