Colors and shades include: Brick red, cherry red, charcoal, chocolate brown, dusty rose pink, sapphire blue, ruby red, pale saffron yellow, burgundy wine red, copper, and more. Condition notes: Areas of pile, knot heads and foundation. Most of the original side cord selvages are intact or restored. Fully secured sides and ends. Some coarse hand overwrapped selvages.
