To identify an ancient and valuable carpet you really have to:
•
make several tests about age, origin, dyes, used wools, patterns
quality and weaving styles;
•
realize with extreme attention if you are examining a handmade
or a machine-made fabric;
•
check the edges to verify if they are undamaged, worn-out or, even
worse, intentionally removed. |
