In studying motif often oriental carpet information can often have clues.
Please contact me privately and I will get the information added OK.

I hope that we can advance the status of this important resource here and that members will take the opportunity to use it as well as become familiar with using the 'search' feature. The material we have archived here through the years is a veritable treasure trove, and I am very grateful for all you continue to add to it as well. Thank you so very much.

All the best,
Jim

Salaams Jim... I will get right on it and send the reference book details soonest. I was very impressed by the sticky on decorative work on non weapon items also.. Regards; Ibrahiim al Balooshi..
