Victorian Parlor Rug??

Apr 19, 2012 07:24 AM

I would like to research this rug before listing. I hope this is the correct forum. Unfortunately there is not a lot of the label left. It measures 11' x 8'. Made in Japan. I have been using it for approx. 25yrs. Any assistance appreciated. Thanks

um lets see

the name rayon was not in use before 1924

the Dupont Corporation created nylon in 1935

The Dupont Corporation created the first acrylic fibers in 1941

its says made in japan in english (which tends to date it after ww2)

This Item is not Victorian or even Edwardian.

...and the fact that there's a zip code on the label - and zip codes were first introduced in 1963 or so - indicates that it was made after that...

This rug would be a very hard sell on ebay. The cost to ship will be more than the value of the rug.
