Synopsis
The Encyclopedia of Antique Carpets catalogs the diverse forms that the art and craft of the handwoven carpet has taken over twenty-five centuries, from the Far East to North Africa, from Europe to India, and within both hemispheres of the New World. The book features Classic Asiatic sources in the "Rug Belt"--Persia (Iran), Anatolia (Turkey), the Caucasus, China, India, and central Asia--and includes more than six hundred entries on all areas of historic carpet production, ranging from village to city and style to weaver. Each entry provides a photograph and information on the history, location, weaving period, technique, quality, design, coloration, size, and marketability of carpets produced around the world. This beautiful clothbound, two-volume boxed set is a comprehensive collection that is required reading for anyone with an eye on the antiques market or the cultural heritage of one of the oldest forms of artwork.

- y***c (37)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGot it for my sister. She really likes it. It is clean and in good condition just as described. At first, I thought it didn't look quite as clean as it did in the picture, but it doesn't smell musty, but my sister said it is okay. Nice wrapping. Not too bulky (fit in mailbox). Got here exactly on date expected. Fair and reasonable shipping cost. Thank you for being honest. Would recommend this seller.New American Standard Bible Reference Edition Moody Press 1975 Leather (#176033190785)
