This rug has been in long-term storage (approx 5 years) and in dry storage for the past 2 years.
There are a number of areas of damage to the border including two holes and some tears; the two largest cuts go through the border. The main field is in generally good order. Overall the rug needs a clean, two patches and some restoration. The pile may be quite fragile due to storage and age.
