With some very minor discolorations and light surface dirt consistent with gentle use and age. A few very minor scattered re-stiching, only visible upon close inspection. There are some losses to the fringe along the upper border which were not shown in the catalogue illustration. Please visit sothebys.com for a full image of the carpet or contact the department for additional images. A remarkable carpet showing great intricacy to the abstract pattern.
