Taupou I found one with the same pattern, retail $500 at "Chairish" (I couldn't find any thing Middle Eastern that matched up...<a href="https://www.chairish.com/product/206628/blue-oaxaca-wool-rug-4-6" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.chairish.com/product/206628/blue-oaxaca-wool-rug-4-6" rel="nofollow">Blue Oaxaca Wool Rug - 4′ × 6′</a>But it is not much of a match in quality - it's having a tough time laying(?) flat (Machine washable??).
