description: A descendant of traders along the silk route near eastern Iran, Azisollahoff has been an old and new Oriental carpet dealer for some 30 years. He provides novice collectors with a guide to understanding the quality, weaving areas, types, buying, and care of new Oriental rugs. The text is lavishly illustrated throughout with color photographs, including close-up photographs taken by the author to illustrate certain principles and to stimulate an appreciation of features often overlooked by the private retail buyer.
