The colours and defined drawing of the medallion and corner areas are what make it such an interesting and desired carpet. The pale yellows and duck egg blue tones add great charm to the madder red and deep blue dyes.
Condition wise as mentioned it is very good indeed, hardly any wear at all, both the ends are original and intact. A very durable and decorative carpet ready to be used for another 100 years.
