Any update on the appraisal?

Hello Clarke,

My name is Lindsey Bourret and I'm the managing director of Mearto. On behalf of my team, I want to sincerely apologize for our delayed response. Unfortunately we had an issue with one of our specialists routinely assigning items to himself, then not completing the appraisals. He has been terminated and we discovered your item in an audit of his account.

I've reassigned your item to one of our other specialists, who should be getting back to you within a few days. I've also added an additional credit to your account, should you wish to give our service another try. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me directly by email at [email protected].

Again, my deepest apologies.

All the best,
Lindsey Bourret
Managing Director, Mearto

Hello Clarke,

Nain pieces are known for their silk foundations and pale blue, ivory color tones with white highlights that create a three dimensional appearance on the rug.

Wool on silk.

The piece is in good condition without visible problems.
