Carpets made in the "Rug Belt" - an area that includes Morocco, North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, and northern India - have been a source of fascination and collecting since the 13th century. This book explores the history, design techniques, materials, craftsmanship, and socio-economic contexts of these works.
