    I remember this from the day I can remember anything...brought to Canada from Switzerland in 1951. Fringe was worn away many years ago and I had it replaced so it would not unravel. I realize that worn and of no real value but sentimental value is great :) Opinions on origin and age please IMG_1260.JPG IMG_1262.JPG IMG_1263.JPG

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Hi, @bobsyouruncle -- Maybe you could post a photo of the whole rug? I notice that nobody has ventured an opinion on origin or age...and I'm interested, too!
