ORIENTAL RUG REVIEW

A Bimonthly Journal of Oriental Rugs
and Other Textiles

This is the home page of Oriental Rug Review, a journal of oriental rugs, other textiles and the pertaining literature which was published in the U.S.A. for 15 years, from March, 1981 to March, 1996. Oriental Rug Review was first published as a black and white monthly tabloid in March 1981. In October 1987 ORR was converted to a color magazine format and was issued bi-monthly.

ORR lives on at this home page. Our eventual goal is to publish everything we have published in the past . We have taken on a massive and complex task which, perhaps forevermore, should be considered a work in progress. We will make it as easy as possible for you to access all of our material. Both our detailed list of back issues and our cross-referenced volume indexes will be filled with links to articles and illustrations. The task of finding a specific article or group of articles (such as everything on Turkoman weaving) is made easier because of search capabilities. Also, we have grouped all of our articles by categories, such as by subject matter and weaving areas. Please be in touch with us with your advice, comments, criticisms and suggestions. We are actively soliciting unpublished material.

Thank you for your visit.
