Good overall condition. When viewed in person, the colors of the carpet are even more intense and rich than in the catalogue illustration. Pile ranges from good, near original, approximately ½ inch throughout to low to 1/6 inch in left side of field. Pile low to knotheads along lower edge. A few scattered spot stains and surface dirt. Red slightly bleeding into ivory areas in places. Flatwoven ends folded under and sewn. Sides with original three-cord well selvages. Flexible handle. A very decorative carpet of large scale and in great condition.
