This is a tribal prayer rug and there is nothing wrong with it! I think it's quite a nice piece, but there again I like things made with heart rather than with cash in mind.
My preference is Kazak rather 'crude' rugs. They seem to show the feel of the people who made them. We have several that were 'test' pieces by beginners just learning. I like the mistakes.
The points made by 'blooey' and 'patd8643' are what drew me to this rug. I feel it's going to feel at home in my office with it's diverse art and eclectic furniture ~
