[QUOTE="Eric Tipton, post: 2477653, member: 9899"]Hello, I recently picked up this absolutely incredible rug at a garage sale, and would love to learn more about it. It's a small size, measuring approximately 3" feet by 2" feet and 2" inches. Can anyone identify the region, age, or style? The owner said they had it in their house for over 60 years as a cover to a piano, and the owner's mother got it from her neighbor who did a lot of traveling to Syria to buy and sell rugs, so she got top choice because they were friends...supposedly. It definitely has some good age, it's hand made, with what looks like a tight weave but then again I'm not an expert. Any other info would be greatly appreciated!
