This rug was purchased by a friend who was living and working in Afghanistan.  It was purchased for about $2000.00 in 2006.  It has been in storage and is in Mint condition.  There is a signature on the bottom near the fringe, but I don't know anyone who can read it.  It is a really beautiful rug and I would love to help him out by finding the retail price for it.  Thanks so much for all of your help!!

The Charm on the side that has flower objects has a letter "A" "U" "M" and a smaller "C" within a circle next to the "A" The other side of the charm has a Owl with large eyes that appear to be suns.  It has a swastika symbol on the left side. It is not completely flat as you would image a charm to be.  I would say it if the image could have been pressed on it may have been but the pictures are raised up.  The top has a loop which makes me think its a charm of some sort.  Their is one small metal connector on the loop which looks like  a broken necklace link.      

I believe they call this an alto sax  I do know that it is about three and a half feet long and had all available parts  and straps it says leblanc Paris on it and has all types of decrotive etchings on it . It also says VITO in scribed on the front of it .
