Condition
Condition consistent with age and gentle use. When viewed in person, the carpet presents with a slightly lighter color than seen in the catalogue illustration. The carpet is woven horizontally. The pile generally very good near original approximately 1 inch overall. Some scattered slits due to weakness of foundation, recommend securing. Flat woven end under edge and side border, partially detached, recommends securing. A very decorative work by Da Silva Bruhns.
