Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Oriental rugs have been the focus of my business and passion for over 35 years. Antique Oriental rugs were my initial "world" of discovery. My understanding of what comprised a quality Oriental rug or carpet eventually led me to seek out woven treasures from contemporary sources (less than 50 years old) that embodied the essence of Oriental rug weaving as art. I personally have spent much time in remote areas of Central Asia, as well as in the U.S., searching for "quality" Oriental rugs, carpets and weavings. My current collection is comprised of a mixture of the Antique and modern with a leaning towards the motifs and styles considered to be classic, or traditional, within the Nomadic and Semi-nomadic classes of weaving. It focuses not only on carpets, but decorative and utilitarian weavings with varied uses in the life-style of Central Asian nomads and village dwellers. This includes tent bags, tent bands, food covers and other items with a useful purpose plus a richness in color, texture, and pattern. Many of the carpets are of a high quality seldom seen anywhere! Many of the pieces I am showing are from my personal collection. Almost all belong to types and styles of weaving that are no longer being produced anywhere and are part of age-old Nomadic and Pastoral life traditions currently disappearing from Central Asia, and our planet.
