The Armenian Orphan Rug
If you haven’t heard of the Armenian Orphan Rug of Ghazir Lebanon, you aren’t alone. Not many people know about this masterpiece and even fewer have had the opportunity to see it because White House officials have elected not to display the carpet in over 20 years. Although some politicians see it as a pariah that’s best left in storage, others see the Ghazir Orphan Carpet as an elegant expression of thanks and an artful way of overcoming loss. The story of this hidden treasure has inspired a new book and is encouraging representatives and cultural groups to lobby for its display.

The Court of Louis XIV of France left an indelible mark on the world of fashion and home furnishing. He was known as the “Sun King,” and reigned for an impressive 72 years. During those years, style and fashion became a sign of outward wealth and status. Out of this quest to show his wealth came some of the most beautiful carpets and tapestries of the era.
