Hi, my name is John Fogg and i am not a rug person— except for my love of & for them. I'm posting here to sell this carpet. From my (minimal) knowledge i believe it is "Anatolian." i have seen pictures on-line of similar carpets in size (33.5 x 60.0 and look) that have me "think" it was made in the 1800's (i.e.; 19th century). I believe it is in quite good condition (there's no wear, but i don't know how "thick" it should be) and as long as i have had it (almost 20 years) it has seen neither shoes nor direct sun. Anyway, my knowing more about it is exhausted. Sorry < smile > Thanks for making the time to look. I appreciate you. — John PS. The price is what i paid for the rug 20 years ago.
