    75" x 42", fringe on two ends. 100% wool. I've been trying to find something that looked similar so I would know where it came from because it seems very handmade and natural - or is it just a manufactured rug? Any help appreciated. Thanks!

      It's a traditional style rug from Mexico. (U.S. Native American weaving is never made with fringe on both ends.) It could have been woven anywhere in Mexico. While certain design patterns are identified by the region where they may have originated, today they are made anywhere in the country.

      Thank you CanyonRoad. I was hoping to find a regional connection so I could see others like this. I really like it.
