These rugs are sometimes incorrectly called the "Bukhara" design after the city where they are collected and marketed, but not made. This rug is made using orange, cream, blue gray, red brown, navy, and red wools It measures 6'2" by 4'2". PLEASE NOTE this is a vintage rug. It has some worn spots (see insert photo) and worn fringe. The softening of the colors and the rug from age are what give it charm. Click on photo for more detail.
