Overall in very good condition. Some of the white is woven in cotton, these are brighter in the illustration. Some minute scattered repairs. Very minor losses to end white stripe.

The light curved mark in the lower left corner in the printed image is lighter due to fold and not a mark on the kilim itself. A striking, colourful work.
