This is a very attractive
Caucasian runner.
Use This is a collectors piece
but could be used in a lower traffic floor area.
Color is difficult over the
internet, please use the Direct Scan below for
the best representation of color in this rug.
N.B. The more I look at this
the more I think it is a Moghan. The Memling Guls, the color,
the knot count the size and width to lenth ratio
all make me think Moghan.
