    The picture does not do it justice at all. In fact it looks almost brand new! But like I said it is 8x12 and VERY VERY heavy lol Me and Dh struggled to get it into the van. I would guess it weighs a good 150 lbss!!!!!

    What a wonderful find! Just some elbow grease and you have a beautiful rug. Everyone around these parts is starting to put things out at the curb for our twice yearly trash pick up. I've been looking but, haven't found anything good yet.
