Traditional Handwoven Rugs

Diablo Weavers presents:
Leon Mayeri, owner of Golden Age Oriental Rugs in Berkeley, will give a presentation on recent trends in handmade oriental rugs from traditional rug weaving centers. In these areas – which include India, Iran, and Afghanistan – rugs are still woven by hand, with rigorous attention to detail and a broader range of design than ever before. Ironically, its no longer just the weaving and knotting of a rug that makes it appealing. A variety of surprisingly useful and relevant input methods have emerged, as the process of completing and finishing a rug has taken on a more important role in the production chain.”

Friday, March 25, 2016, 10 am. Ygnacio Valley Library in Walnut Creek
