INTRODUCTORY 
 
 HIS SPECIAL LIST, describing a selected 
 number of carpets of various high grade 
 Persian and Chinese weaves, is presented out 
 of an extensive stock which is regarded as the largest 
 and most complete in the United States. We shall be 
 pleased to send you for approval any rug that may be 
 required, transportation charges to be defrayed by you. 
 
 The few plates of our own Shahristan weave in 
 this list illustrate an important feature of our work. 
 Woven on our looms in the Orient from special 
 designs, they particularly appeal to those who find it 
 difficult to secure in the market rugs to fulfill in size, 
 coloring and design their decorative requirements. We 
 would be pleased to submit original sketches prepared 
 by our staff of artist designers for orders to be executed 
 on our Shahristan looms. Prices range from three to 
 eight dollars a square foot, according to quality. 
 
 One of the floors in our building is devoted 
 entirely to the display of rare examples of the earliest 
 periods only, which will interest the collector and 
 connoisseur. These specimens are not included in the 
 present list.
