This rug is about 4 feet by 6 1/2 feet (46 inches by 79 inches). Most of the war rugs are quite small. This is more unique and the only one I have in this size.

If you don't like the price, you don't have to buy it. If you have a lower offer, make it. If you have something disparaging to say, either keep it to yourself or take it to Private Messages.

This one is made in a more complex fashion similar to the large, expensive Herat ones and has a more intricate weave pattern than the smaller, common, Baluchi cheaply-made ones that are usually new-made for sale to Soldiers. It's probably best to read-up on the history, composition, styles, and prices of these pieces before (unintentionally) knocking someone's sale post. There are quite a few involved differences:
