I need help identifying this rug. It is app: 8ft. X 11ft. I purchased it at a flea market and it looks to be hand made. I can't find anything like it to compair it with. I was told it is not Navajo. Someone suggested it may be from Mexico or Peru. I would love to find out how old it is and where it came from and who made it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

this is a dhurry handwoven rug not to be confused with a Khelim. Many of these patterns were woven in India.
