ORIENTAL CARPETS FROM THE TENTS, COTTAGES AND WORKSHOPS OF ASIA by Jon Thompson, Dutton Studio Books, 1983/1988, revised edition published by Penguin Books, N.Y. First published in England under the title 'Carpet Magic,' this volume is an updated and revised edition of a very popular text on the subject of Oriental rugs. 'Jon Thompson’s guide to the world of rugs and carpets received enthusiastic acclaim from general readers and students alike as the best introduction to the subject yet published. By discussing carpets in the context of the people who weave them, the book makes this complex and often jargon-ridden subject easily accessible. Using a scheme for dividing all carpets into four categories—tribal, cottage industry, workshop and court—Jon Thompson immediately makes plain for the less knowledgeable carpet-lover how to begin to trace the likely origins of carpets, to understand how they are made, and to appreciate how and why patterns differ. For he firmly believes that a real grasp of the subject depends not on learning names but on a much broader understanding. Written with unusual clarity and avoiding all use of jargon, this invaluable book contains more than 180 outstanding color illustrations. There are maps, a glossary, and a detailed guide for buyers and sellers—a humorous and often irreverent review of the trade that contains much valuable advice.' Here, then, is a highly readable and expert text on the subject, filled with essential information for the curator, collector or dealer of Oriental carpets. 8.25 in. x 11.75 in. softback in very good condition. 176 pages.

AFFORDABLE ORIENTAL RUGS: THE BUYER’S GUIDE TO RUGS FROM CHINA, INDIA, PAKISTAN AND ROMANIA by Janice Summers Herbert, A Studio Vista book published by Cassell Ltd., London, 1980. This book 'is a complete reference guide to the increasingly popular, less expensive rugs from China, India, Pakistan and Romania. Illustrated with over 100 full-color photographs, it contains all the data and advice you need to select the ideal rug for your home and budget, to evaluate its quality, and to keep it in top condition. Discussing everything from the preparation of the wool to methods of looming, basic knotting techniques and the symbolism of designs, Janice Summers Herbert compares the merits of various rugs, explaining exactly how to assess their value. Her informative text is accompanied by detailed maps of each rug-weaving region and a fascinating history of the art taken up to the present day. The glossary of rug terminology—from Aubusson to weft—will help you understand and speak the language of the Oriental-rug expert. With the help of this book, you will learn to tell at a glance whether a rug is made by hand or by machine, how old it is, and whether natural or chemical dyes were used. You will discover how to avoid the pitfalls of shopping overseas for the ‘bargain of a lifetime’ and what to watch out for in the heat of an auction. Whether you are an armchair shopper, a prospective collector, an interior decorator, a rug dealer, or are simply interested in Oriental art, you will find this an enjoyable, invaluable reference book and an investment that could literally save you a small fortune.' 7.25 in. x 10.25 in. hardback with dust cover in very good condition. 160 pages.

RUGS AND CARPETS OF EUROPE AND THE WESTERN WORLD by Jeanne G. Weeks and Donald Treganowan, Chilton Book Co., NY, 1969 First Edition. 'The history of western or Occidental design begins in Spain during the early fifteenth century when Christian motifs or symbols began to pervade those formalized geometric and floral designs of the Orient. From this historical beginning the authors trace the influence of Moorish weavers to France, where rug and carpet design reached the ultimate of refinement and quality at the famous manufactories of Aubusson and Savonnarie. From France the authors trace the development of the art to England, Scandinavia, Greece, and America. In treating the early homemade rugs of New England, the Shaker rugs and the rugs of the American Indian are discussed. A special section is devoted to the American Indian rugs themselves. Each country developed its own ethnic designs, which became rigidly maintained by each successive generation (with only minor variations) as the craft of hand embroidery or weaving was passed down from mother to daughter in the household, from father to son in the manufactories.'

Thoroughly illustrated with 11 color plates, 80 black and white photos, numerous charts and maps, this early out-of-print book is a classic reference on antique and modern Oriental rugs. ORIENTAL RUGS, ANTIQUE AND MODERN by Walter A. Hawley, Dover Publications, N.Y., 1913/1970, is 'regarded for over fifty years as the best general account in English of these great rugs. It tells you almost everything that you need to know about them; the history of rug-making in the Near East, with its cultural extensions; the materials used, how prepared and dyed; the various knots that are used to fasten the pile, and their significance for identifying carpets; the remarkable designs and symbols, and their meaning—of which most Americans are completely unaware; the techniques used in making a carpet; and the determination of analine-dyed imitations. Most of this information has been the carefully guarded secret trade-lore of the dealers. After this background material has been explained, Mr. Hawley covers in detail the rugs from each of the six major groups: Turkish, Caucasian, Persian, Indian, Central Asiatic, and Chinese. He describes the special features of each—size-color-patterns, symbols, fringes, weaving and knotting techniques, as well as the wealth of lore associated with each. This material is presented so clearly that you should be able to identify with accuracy any true Oriental rug that you are likely to see.' 6 in. x 9.25 in. soft back in very good condition. 320 pages.
