That is one fine rug. Great clean but how did it get so mucked up? Thanks John.

I was thinking maybe a lifetime of those little purse dogs,a few proper hounds, 4 generations of infants and toddlers and finally the matter of invalid care......someone who actually USES one of these handtied masterpieces has my admiration

It was amazing how imbedded the dirt was. Nice to see it saved; its a beautiful rug.

Needless to say this would be a high quality rug.
Otherwise it would be trash, right ?
