About this ebook
This classic book offers a brief guide to Persian embroideries, and with many photographic examples would make a great addition to anyone's bookshelf with an interest in the subject. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
