| This is the last predator drone rug of the 2015 group of rugs.
It is new and in perfect condition. The materials and craftspersonship are excellent. It is well-knotted with super quality wool that has been carded and spun by hand which protects the natural lanolin in the wool. Lanolin gives shine and protects the wool. Like all Peshawar style rugs this rug has also been washed and rinsed with a conditioner The conditioning ads added luster and protection for the wool. |
| Wool: The brown in the planes, the red in the field, and the red in the border are all distinctly different wools. The red wool used in the border is spun into thicker threads and has slightly less luster, but the wool has a fattier feel. The burgundy is the thinnest threads and the shiniest wool. | Sheen: Excellent. | Handle: Pretty floppy for this batch of rugs. The Peshawar rugs are a pretty sturdy lot, and this rug is more flexible than most. | Selvedge: One cord burgundy overcast that matches the field color. |
| Fringe: Two inch white cotton | Pile: 4mm | Warp: White cotton | Weft: White cotton |
| Warp Depression:Pretty close to full warp depression
