Description

This is a fine hardcover copy with a fine dust jacket with no wear at all. Completely clean. This book is the result of an international research project undertaken over a number of years. It is the first major study of Ottoman textiles to attempt a classification of the key technical and decorative categories. And is also the first study to offer a catalog of dateable textiles. There are examples from the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, and other European museums as well as ecclesiastical treasuries in Russia and Central Europe. Illustrated lavishly in color and black & white. Glossary. Bibliography. 14" high X 11" wide, 360 pages. Large heavy book, foreign shipping will be extra. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking.
