Description:

For the first time, the traditional flatwoven Indian dhurrie is given the prominence it deserves. Transcending social boundaries, the dhurrie was used by commoner and royalty alike. At its simplest it was used as floor covering, bedding or packaging. At its most elaborate, however, woven with the finest fibres and enhanced with gold threads, it graced the palaces of royalty This pioneering work traces the dhurries through the centuries. It pays particular attention to the design and colouring of dhurries from classic stripes to ornate geometrical designs, as well as pictorial dhurries.
