Oriental Rugs Auction

I am selling my Afghan rug from September 11 (9/11), one of the rarest specimens of its kind. It shows the World Trade Center towers in flames as well as fire engines heading toward the buildings, capturing very directly the tragic events of that day.

This is one of the first rugs made after the attacks, which gives it great historical and collecting value. Its dimensions are 200 cm × 140 cm.

I will not sell it for less than €400, given its rarity. Beyond this price, may the best buyer win.

Je vends mon tapis afghan du 11 septembre (9/11), l’un des exemplaires les plus rares de ce type. On y voit les tours du World Trade Center en flammes ainsi que des camions de pompiers se dirigeant vers les bâtiments, capturant de manière très directe les événements tragiques de cette journée.

Il s’agit de l’un des premiers tapis réalisés après les attentats, ce qui lui confère une grande valeur historique et de collection. Ses dimensions sont de 200 cm × 140 cm.

Je ne le vendrai pas en dessous de 400 €, compte tenu de sa rareté. Au-delà de ce prix, que le meilleur acheteur l’emporte
