unusual Kashan tribal rug (1156)

Kashan carpet.  Tribal with a beautiful arbrash.  No fading, some wear spots but nothing severe (see pics)  5x6 ft. Kashan is a factory town and most carpets from this area are very fine quality with no color variation.  This rug was not made in one of the factories, hence "tribal".  Very high quality and beautiful piece.  Unusual.  1st half of the 20th century.
