    While I am not an expert......
    Your dating seems good.....and the copy seems OK......but even with the minor damage to either rug ....they're both lovely examples and I find your prices low .....even with thousands UPON thousands of Navajo rugs on the market , the smaller one is a very nice size.....and the larger one ....very long .....nicely complex....
    And the grey/beige background is well executed ...
