The history of Canadian collecting practices and cultural context of the Oriental rug production is highlighted with a well-illustrated display of over 70 distinctive rugs, horse and camel decorations, and tent bands and bags from Central and West Asia – regions well known for the richness of their rug weaving traditions developed by diverse cultures and peoples. The accompanying essay provides a window into their complex and ancient traditions as well as a meaningful access to the diverse and multifaceted Canadian heritage. The myriad items presented are drawn from 30 private collections and numerous public institutions.

There are more than one hundred rugs highlighted in this volume, many from the Textile Museum, but also from the Nickle Galleries in Calgary, and from private collections throughout the country.
