Collector's Guide to Persian Carpets and Antique Rugs

Rug collectors do not operate in a vacuum. They function with in a larger community of collectors with whom they share their passions and against whom they compete on one level or another. Within such a community it is always possible to discern trends, largely though tracking rug auctions and dealer sales. At times a particular type or pattern of rug suddenly become “hot.” Perhaps a new type, previously under-emphasized or unnoticed, comes into the spotlight, and collectors scramble to acquire one. There are various scenarios of this sort. Collectors must therefore decide if they wish to jump on such bandwagons, which can temporarily or permanently inflate prices, or pursue their collecting based on goals and interests hat they establish for themselves. The true trend setters are invariably collectors of this latter kind.
