Another Persian
Bought this one just now...looks to be a good older Persian...the selverage is a bit frayed which is the thing to look for.. 4 X 6 and the price was right. I was the under bidder on the blue one next to it..it went for $464 plus shipping...it was older and looked to be in nicer shape.

This is a Hamden ZAGHEH in the Herati pattern. The teeth in the border pattern is the distinctive feature..."Quality is good, the yarn so so and the dye stuffs are suspect"

Hell Tabby, I thought you were starting a cat thread. No persian rugs in this house. Just Turkish ones that Evren & Ruki gave us. I wonder if they'd know anything about rugs?

That rug really ties the room together, does it not?

The Herati pattern is the Rossette in the center of a Diamond, with four Rossettes coming off the diamond. Zegheh is west of Hamaden and just east of the Kurdish tribal area.

Decent rug. Looks like it was incorrectly washed at some time. Got a picture of the other one ?
