Three borders enclose life-like animals in attitudes of Hight 7 pursuit and combat, typifying the strife towards Eternal Life. The field of the rug is formed of panels with a variety of patterns — of birds, animals and fish, conventionalized on a ruby ground — of uncommon shade, the whole design being one of mythological — significance, showing Chinese influence. The general motif of beasts and birds of prey with their vicina suggests the struggle between right and wrong, light and dark-— ness, the chief motif being the lotus, emblem of Eternity. The prevailing tone of the rug is old ruby color, the narrow outer border being of rose color, the inner border of old pink; both decorated with birds and animals. The principal border is of old Persian blue with trees, flowers, birds and animals. A Museum Piece. : Size, 13.5 x 11.9 feet. . (See Illustration.) 5 Fine Antique Persian Silk Rug. Ten borders, the chief one of ox-blood red, the secondary border of turquoise blue. The ground of the rug a dull ivory contain- ing six panels. Each of these panels is a rug design in itself; the two upper are of fanciful floral decoration, another contains the Tree of Life, another a coat-of-arms and royal emblems, another a rug with medallion and another a prayer rug. Blue columns support a rich red Mihrab from the centre of which is suspended a lamp. Size, 6.2 x 4.5 feet. 1322. Superb Persian Fish Pattern Silk Rug. Rich red ground. The ground of the main border and centre medallion is a very dark blue, with alternating lotus blossom and head-dress designs surrounded by elephants’ heads and fishes. Running from the centre medallion are two highly ornamental columns with a decoration of heads, on each side of which are beautifully modeled peacocks from which run the old Persian leaf on which are ornamental gold fishes. The leaves springing from the centre medallion also contain fishes in blue. From the base of the columns spring branches to which cling apes in conflict with mythical animals. The various branches terminate in the heads of dragons, fish, birds, wild boar and other animals. Size, 10 x 6.3 feet. [ 200 ] No. 1320. XVIth CENTURY, ROYAL ISPAHAN RUG 1323.

(Mansour was second Caliph of the House of Habbas.) “The dancer of the party is like a servant, who does menial offices.” Ciaued ats The ‘A friend who arrives last may be more welcome than he who comes first (or eae he : who invites himself.)

A very unusual piece, the design being of the Shah Habbas Period (towards the end of the XVIth Century) done in only a few colors, the prevailing tone being heliotrope, showing a distinct Chinese influence, with inscriptions which show this to be a “gift rug.”’ The main legend reads: “T hope you will engoy this rug as you enjoy the buds of the springtime (or the time of roses). May you, your family and yet unborn children enjoy it. Milardt.” (Prob- ably a gift at a birth, the final word reading ‘‘a birth-gift.’’) Size, 7.1 2 4.8 feet. 1326. Antique Persian Silk Rug.

Five borders of alternate colors in Khorassan design. Inside is an ivory border four inches wide, containing inscriptions all around. The centre of the rug is dark blue covered with Persian floral pattern in rose, turquoise blue and ivory. The weave of this rug is very rare. The proverbs repeated around the border are: “4 bad friend will be unable to answer the questions put to him in Eternity.” ** The Speech of Yusuf is sweeter than the sayings of Religion.” “Your presence is as dear to my heart, as was the presence of Aiyaz to Sultan Mahmoud.” (Repeated.) Size, 11.4 x 8.6 feet. 1329. Antique Persian Silk Carpet. From the center of the rug on a light rose ground range a series of light blue cartouches with inscriptions, intersected by two similar bands across the width of the rug, thus dividing it into six sections. Each of these sections contain four panels of highly artistic design showing cartouches and floral patterns. The border is dark rose with light blue cartouches with inscriptions and floral patterns. The inscriptions are as follows: Centre lines: “‘What says the lark to the rose in the garden?” He said: “That you with your rosy cheeks should bloom. Why weary of life when everything around you is beautiful ?”’ (The small lozenges repeat: “May you enjoy it,”—meaning the rug.) Cross line: ‘‘I love your presence, therefore you are welcome. May a thousand lives be sacrificed at your every step !’’ (Repeated twice.) Border: ‘What says the rose to the lark?” He says: “‘He whose deeds are as open as the day has no anxieties.” (Repeated. ) Lozenges: “The man whose hat is of silk both inside and out can take tt off, he is honest, and has nothing to conceal.” | Size, 12.2 x 9 feet. 1330.
