About This Item
New York: Orley Shabahang, 2009. Paperback. Unpaginated, about seventy pages, fullsize captioned color and b&w photos throughout on fine alkaline paperstock, find a rear pocket containing five 9x6 inch color design cards (as called for; mostly modernist & abstract). Item is an 8.5x11 inch oblong softbound in fine shape: perfectly sound, clean and unmarked. These rug entrepreneurs found five tiny rural villages snug between rice paddies and a fearsome mountain range (see doublespread photo) where the inhabitants, men & women both, were glad to pick up money weaving. Most of the recent patterns are excellent, and the weavers can do classical designs too.
