This bowl was found in West Central New Mexico in early 1970's stuck in a crevice of a mountain, barely noticeable. The "person" stamped out in bottom of the bowl "appears" to have a turban on & wearing a robe, as though of royalty., & I'm not sure, but the design around the bowl looks as though it may be foreign language.
hand made rug bag from overseas. Not sure if from Saudi Arabia or Iraq. multi-colored on the front with numerous birds and flowers and the back is a solid yellow. the bottom has dangling balls across it. the strap is of two kinds of fibers twisted together and different colored balls on it.
I would like to know if there is any value in this and what it could appraise for.
I have a very unique baby crib with a strap metal style rocking mechanism, very simple. I have looked at hundreds of pictures from various sources and have seen nothing like it.
I suspect it to be early 1900's, no markings that I have seen. This is not miniature or doll furniture, has what I suspect is original mattress. I bought it at an estate sale where the previous owner was said to be a hoarder.
Anything you can tell me woill be appreciated, especially time period and possible origins.
