Index. ***'A residence of many years in Turkey, part of the time in the far interior, offered ample opportunity to continue the study of Oriental rugs began in America. ***'It is my purpose in this book to tell what I learned there about rug weaving, rug dyeing, and rug collecting. It is necessarily a narrative of personal experience, and the indulgence of the reader is craved for the use of the personal pronoun. ***I have endeavored to avoid generalities, and to give the history and characteristic designs of each variety of rug, with illustrations of specimen pieces under separated headings. ***The object in thus deviating from the plan of any other work on rugs is to enable the reader who wishes to identify any particular rug to find everything that pertains to that variety in one place and not scattered through several chapters. ***This arrangement, it is hoped, will meet a long-felt need, as expressed to me by collectors and students of rugs.' (Quote from the introduction by the author). ***Early, antiquarian edition, profusely illustrated with all colour and black and white plates present, as called for, printed on thick quality paper in very nice, bright collectable condition; of interest to collectors of oriental rugs. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
