Synopsis

Oriental Rugs is a simple but serious introduction to the infinite variety of oriental rugs available, giving a comprehensive view in a well-organised, easily followed 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. Oriental Rugs offers valuable practical guidance on the different types of rug for everyday furnishing purposes, the pitfalls that await the unwary buying at auctions, clearly presented photographic examples of the rugs, a unique colour-coded chart to help with décor schemes and a price guide.
