Excerpt from Oriental Rugs From the old city of Lule in Persia, he answered; my father was born there; it is a fine old town. It was plain he was going on to tell the threadbare narrative, as venerable as the city of Lule, and as fictitious, of how this particular bit of carpet was more than a century old-was, in fact, an heirloom in his family; of how his father had died just after bringing it all the way to this country, and it could now be had for the wretched sum of fifty dollars, because its associations made him so sad. As a matter of fact, the name Lule is a corruption of the French roulez, and is given by Levantine dealers, whose business is largely transacted in Gallic, to a class of carpets so thick, so tightly woven, that they cannot be folded, but must of necessity be rolled up for shipment.

Excerpt from Oriental Rugs, Antique and Modern By study and cultivation the European as well as the American is growing to value more highly the products of Oriental art. When the old sea captains carried on trade with Japan, they imported into Europe large quantities of Imari ware, which the Japanese purposely decorated with crude and vulgar colours to meet the less refined taste of the Europeans, who regarded many of them as fine speci mens of ceramic art and studiously Copied them in their factories. But so great has been the change in artistic taste since then that now they are valued principally as objects of curiosity. Likewise, many beautiful Japanese Makimonos, in which a few strong lines gave but a hint of the essential thought, formerly passed before the eyes of Europeans as the paintings of semi-barbarians. But now we begin to see, as did Whistler, that they are often the prod ucts of great genius and that they express thought and feeling with marvellous power. There has been a similar growth in the appreciation of Oriental rugs. Even within the last generation this growth has been apparent, so that the few who wisely bought those old worn pieces which thirty years ago hung at doors of little shops where dark-faced foreigners invited acquaintance, are now the envy of the many who, too late, have learned that to-day they can scarcely be bought at any price.

Excerpt from Rugs, Oriental and Occidental, Antique and Modern: A Handbook for Ready Reference N the house beautiful, rugs impart richness and represent refinement. Their manufacture was one of the earliest incentives for the blending of colors in such harmony as to please the eye and satisfy the mind; consequently, it is one of the most important of the industrial arts. Since the days when ancient peoples first lay down to sleep wrapped in the skins of animals, the human intelligence has quickened, and as the race has become more civilized, rugs have gradually taken the place of skins. Thus began the industry of rug-weaving, and it has grown to such an extent that it is now of world-wide importance. The word Rug is used in this volume in the follow ing sense A covering for the floor; a mat, usually oblong or square, and woven in one piece. Rugs.

Excerpt from The Tiffany Studios Collection of Notable Oriental Rugs Are coming to America, only occasionally are those to be found that have sufficient distinction to warrant their being placed among textiles notable and historic. Such as have merit are more readily recognized and classified than ever before, so care fully trained has become the judgment of those who have been studying the products of the loom for the last half century. Beautiful rugs are being woven to-day in which the best materials and technical methods are employed. The designs of the past which have been borrowed have, however, in many cases been altered by the addition of unrelated details and many minor changes, and do not always combine the styles of the same period, thus causing anachronisms that are confusing and un safe.

Excerpt from The Mystery of the Oriental Rug, the Mystery of the Rug, the Prayer Rug: Some Advice to Purchasers of Oriental Rugs The three articles of which this monograph is composed were written for magazine publi cation, but upon due re ection the author has, instead, deemed it advisable to publish them all under one cover; first, because of the kindly reception which the public accorded his first effort, The Practical Book of Oriental Rugs; second, because of the popular demand for a low-priced book on the subject; and, finally, because these articles contain information which is found in no other book, and which should be of special interest to those who know little of rugs and who are desirous of learning something without too much research.
