Repost @joobinbekhrad・・・In case you missed it … Read ‘The Timeless Appeal of the Persian Rug’, a piece of mine for the BBC in which I look at the Persian rug in history, culture, art, and even fashion (http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20171206-the-timeless-appeal-of-the-persian-rug). For the purposes of the story, I interviewed the amazing @annasui and Dr Aimee Froom of the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. Photo: a design by Marlou Breuls at the 2016 Mercedes-Benz Amsterdam Fashion Week. ..‘In spite of its domestic woes, the Persian rug still, as it has for aeons, holds a timeless, luxurious, opulent and extravagant allure and appeal. “There’s something so magical about it,” says Froom. “It pervades so many different aspects of life.” As for Persian-rug patterns like paisley, which have become ubiquitous in fashion and design, Sui’s words echo Froom’s: “[Paisley] is so beautiful … it’s not that you either like it or don’t: everyone likes it… I think there’s a reason it’s been so successful in carpeting — it’s a pattern you can really live with.”’.#iran #iranian #persian #persianrug #ruglife #persiancarpet #annasuinull -- source link
