Are your rugs hand-knotted?

Are your heirloom rugs authentic?

What's the difference between vintage & antique rugs?
Antique rugs are typically over 100 years old, while vintage rugs generally date from the 20th century. Both are traditionally hand-knotted and regionally authentic; the difference lies primarily in age, not quality or craftsmanship.
