    I was told this was 80 years old which would make it from 1944which was WWII. Could be a bit later or earlier. But anyway it is an old rug. The interesting thing about this is the design in silk. The silk has a nice effect as it shimmers as one looks at it while moving. Rather awkward sentence but as you look at it from different angles the light reflects a bit differently.
    Mr Jingles has taken the place of the hidden cat but it looks like I need a white background.
    The last photo shows the underside. I was guessing the rug was 3' x 5' but it is actually 34" x 54".
