I purchased this Stark rug at the Stark dealer at The Merchandise Mart in Chicago in the early to mid 1990’s for $8,000.00. The pattern is flowers. Background is black. 25 other colors in the rug include rose, mauve, coral, various shades of green, yellow, lilac and blue. The tag on the back of the rug does not say what the rug is made of. It just says… Quality: H.35ON (or 0N) Design: SP.4 Pile Content: LOOP (Needlepoint) Country of Origin: Thailand Serial# EX.0065/93 E.0119-36 H.53970
