This is a beautiful rug made in India and is handmade of natural fibers, skilled artisans create the lovely designs and dense pile by inserting each tuff by hand. This rug is 4 years old but has hardly any traffic on it as I had kept the first 3 years in the living room area. I paid over $800/- for this beautiful rug and selling it for my wife now needs another one. The rug is taken great care, you can check yourself by seeing the attached pictures. It still has an original manufacture sticker on it and looks just like in a showroom. Please reply me for any questions at nareshmamnani@hotmail.com or to schedule a viewing. delaware
