Lewis - Practical Book of Oriental Rugs Part 1

DominicM

Why might you ever need this book, OK likely you wont ever, hence am only posting my Onedrive link

I love old Persian carpets, and being an artist, am fascinated by the whole religious symbolism and hidden meanings subject

I have PB'd it for myself mainly for the "DESIGNS AND THEIR SYMBOLISM" section, which is helpful,

"The transmission of ancient patterns has been going on from century to century, the old designs and colourings being copied by the weavers from one generation to another and many of those used at the present time are doubtless the same that were used in the time of Abraham.

Part 2, is very technical may do it eventually, but is unlikely 

Have added it to my Onedrive https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhJmKwkrYSj-jJNzk63SFaIgbT_cwQ
