ORIENTAL RUGS

A perfect introduction to the infinite variety of oriental rugs available, this book offers a comprehensive view in a well-organized fashion. Nothing adds more character and distinction to even the smallest of rooms than an oriental rug, but the vast choice and the difficulty of assessing value frequently intimidates the inexperienced purchaser. This guide offers valuable practical guidance on the different types of rug for everyday furnishing purposes and the pitfalls that await the unwary buying at auctions, clearly presented photographic examples of the rugs, a color-coded chart to help with décor schemes, and a price guide.
