Please note that the main picture colors are more accurate than the closeup colors.

Woven on a narrow loom creating the apx. 2 foot width. I feel that the wool was vegetable dyed and possibly home spun as well. One can only imagine the months this project took. One end has some fade and threads missing. I would take 3 feet off the length of the entire rug, making it apx. 10 feet in length. There are some sporadic snags, which to me do not detract from this antique runner. However, this is why I always send on approval so you may use your eyes and decide.

The colors are dark brown, mustard, orange and brick red.

Sent with free shipping for your approval.
