Not much to blog about so far but one small piece of fresh news .
Freeman’s Auction , Phil. Pa. has a summer rug & carpet sale scheduled on Aug. 10th that features 141 lots of rugs , carpets and flat weaves . Unfortunately nothing of particular interest to serious collectors or decorators just a varied group of mid to low end common items.
Only one piece caught my eye , lot # 40 Yomut okbash fragment . Very poor online illustration . Reasonable pre- sale est. at $2-300.00 . Could be something but most likely nothing .
That’s about it , a very quiet week in rug dumb!
