Pre-Islamic Carpets and Textiles from Eastern Lands

by

Celebrates the earliest history of the Islamic world’s great textile traditions through fifty beautiful carpets and fragments. A wave of these beautiful textiles has reached the West since the turn of the 21st century, and here they are divided into variants featuring birds, mammals, and mythological creatures, which retain their glowing colors and lively charm.
