Turkish rugs

Rugs from turkey. I am unsure of the material. They are in amazing condition. No tears or worn down areas. My uncle was in the navy and he brought this back on his plane in the early 90s. I wish I could tell you more about them but he died in 2001 due to his job. The pictures make the rug look way brighter than they are if that helps you when trying to figure out the details on it. I’m submitting another rug I will put same info. They have been wrapped up and protected with plastic and not used for over 10 years now. I have been trying to find a professional cleaner for them. Just so they are nice and fresh!
