Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
Overall very good condition considering type and age. Very minor fading in localized areas, otherwise, very good color retention. Minor areas of restoration, but not very obvious. Minor slits at color weft changes that require attention. Area along the left side where the carpet was cut in two places (15 inches long) to accommodate a fireplace surround but is now reattached and well done. With a linen backing that is in very good shape. Would benefit greatly from a professional cleaning.
