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.
The majority of the pile is thick and full throughout, remaining well above the knot collar. The wool has a good lustre and a number of well-saturated colours. There are some small areas of wear, found mainly in a band across the middle of the field, where the flatwoven foundation is visible. There is a very small hole just to one side of the centre of the rug which measures 2cm. x 1.5cm. The selvages are both original and secure. Both ends have the original kilim, one also has original knotted fringes, and are secure. Overall this rug is in good condition.
