Magic carpets in Windsor


Transported to another land in Windsor Daniels store  This corner of wonder full of rugs & carpets & cushions made me think of my travels go Turkey. I teased the traders Where is my Elemet cay ..Apple tea.. he smiled and told me these are from Iran.. we had a good coversation on the artisans of Iran and there skills in design & manufacturing. 

Some of the designs had an Egyptian Heiroglypics influence I thought and also hints of Aztec..loved the colours and designs..I have found this googled link to learn more on regions, styles, weaves and materials used. Persian Master Knotters by Region 

More photos..I have a favourite one too.. Lets hope one day can purchase..
