The concluding part of a three-part article from The Melliand Textile Monthly on Persian rugs. It distinguishes nomad, Persian and Turkish/Smyrna rugs, then surveys Persian rug types by region: Azerbaijan (Tabriz, Heris, Karadagh), Turkmenian, Northeast (Chorasan-Meshed), Central (Feraghan, Kashan, Isfahan, Hamadan, Sarabent, Saruk), South (Kirman, Shiras-Kashkai) and Kurdistan (Senneh, Bidjar, Mosul). For each it describes the wool, knot density per square foot, sizes, colors and designs. Illustrations include a map of Persian wool districts and two rug design photographs with knot counts.
