Lisa,
Can you supply on details on the rugs construction and origins? What made it so valuable?

Pop over to the article link to WSJ at my post (I can't copy and paste the link here from my iPhone) - and it's there. All details on that and other rugs. This Persian piece was from the 1600's. We had a Turkish rug in our shop this past year from the 1700's that auctioned for $150K euro... not millions - but tribal rugs don't get the respect that city ones do. I personally love the tribal pieces more. But that's me.

Thanks for posting!
Lisa
