[QUOTE="Taupou, post: 237004, member: 45"]I agree, a kilim from Pirot, a weaving center in Serbia. And just in the interest of accuracy, this was woven on a floor loom, so it is actually the top and bottom of the rug that has the fringe, not the sides, since weavings like this are usually oriented as they are finished on the loom. The fringe is the knotted-off continuation of the warp threads.[/QUOTE]
