Oriental Rugs That Mirror
a Wild Sense of Beauty
The nomad's sense of the beautiful in color
and decoration is nowhere mere naively re
flected than in Kazak rugs. The same is true
in a lesser sense of Daghestans and Cnbistans.
Knzaks are conspicuous for their daring
designs nnd emphatic contrasts of color.
In Daghestans the contrasts are no less
vivid, but the figuration is smaller.
In both the note of primitive boldness is
sufficiently striking te invest the rugs with a
special interest for gift-seekers.
The dark, rich red tones of Beluchistans
appeal very strongly te them also.
Kazaks, about 4.6x7 ft. te 5x8 ft., $5 te
Daghestans and Cabistans, about 3x5 te 4x7 ft., $65 te $145.
