MEASUREMENTS : ~ This lovely piece measures about 21 inches wide by4.72 yards long. ( because these textiles are woven by hand, there is often variation in the width on every bolt )
CONDITION : CONDITION : This rag rug is in as found, not freshly laundered condition. This bolt is dirty and needs a wash! ~ *~ This bolt can be either dry cleaned or This bolt can be hand washed and hung to dry also, but warning : the water will be dirty! :))) ~ They clean SO beautifully , but I'm just not able to clean them all. So, the unwashed condition is reflected in the price! ~*~ Because of the way they are woven, you can display either side of the rug if there is something you don't want to see on one side! I've sold these wonderful textiles for many years now, and have never had an unhappy customer, however it's very important to know that it is necessary to dry clean or hand wash and hang to dry before it can be enjoyed! The unwashed condition is reflected in the price! *~! Generally, this textile is in good condition, but not without signs of time and use often inherent in these amazing pieces!
