This is an authentic hand made Kilim from Oman
I bought this about 5 years ago from an antique shop but do not know how old it actually is- it could easily have been new then- however it does have some imperfections in the weave which makes me think it might be older but then any ethnic rug purchased even when new usually has some irregularities because they are hand made
The irregularities do not detract from the beauty of the rug and actually enhance it
The length quoted measures to the edge of the fringes at both ends 200x100cms or 6 ft 6 ins x 3ft 8 ins
This is a really beautiful rug made from really strong wool - the rug has a slightly course feel
It will last for years if not generations
It cost £210 new
Staring bidding at £50
I will post it but the cost will be about £15 to the UK
