Second part of a series on Sardinian folk art from the Italian art magazine Dedalo, covering rugs, chest covers, bed coverlets, lace and drawn-thread or cross-stitch embroidery. The author describes regional styles (Santa Giusta, Isili, Morgongiori, Ittiri, Bosa), typical layouts, colors and motifs such as birds, horsemen and heraldic figures. He also discusses the decline of the traditions and the Pischedda and Manconi collections. About half the pages are plates of rugs, copricassa, bisaccia, burato and ingirialettu pieces.
