Professor Department of Textiles and Apparel Cornell Department of Textiles and Apparel University, Ithaca, NY Cornell University, Ithaca, NY Forms of Production Past research, conducted mainly in the 1970s and 1980s, has identified three forms of production in which carpets are woven as commodities1. These are petty-commodity production, the putting-out system, and workshop production. Petty-commodity production involves weaving in the home, with the male head of the household or other male relatives selling the finished product to a carpet dealer or at a local or regional market (fig. 1). The family owns the loom and other weaving supplies, and family members purchase or prepare the yarn themselves.

  • Persian Cloud Collar Research TH Lady Miriam Bat Shimeon Kingdom of Lochac, 2015
    Persian Cloud Collar research TH Lady Miriam bat Shimeon Kingdom of Lochac, 2015. A quick word from the researcher During my studies of the Middle East I created my blog, where I posted whatever item that interested me. This included publicising other Scadian’s research and blogs and have made friends and learnt much. In more recent times I had focussed on Mamluk ruled Egypt, which covered the 13th to 16th centuries. There has been much that had kept me busy but no Empire or country can be studied as a single entity. They were as influenced by their times and neighbours as we are today. So I have forayed into researching a little of the Ottoman and Persian Empires. So much information can be found! However, I had become curious about the Persian cloud collar. Having studied how embroidery was used to decorate Egyptian clothes, I could not help but wonder about how the Persian did it too. So I put aside my Egyptian research (not completely!) and started on Persian cloud collars. For this I must thank all other Scadians that have researched before me- your research was my base from which I could start from. Please check out the bibliography at the end for a full listing. I must also thank my husband for drawing up for me what I requested. He has the ability to draw what I struggled with. Having hit upon the hurdle of very few extant pieces, I have studied what I could but started grabbing pictures of cloud collars from Timurid and Safavid Persia.

FREUND At this moment, when a large and important part of my collection is to be disposed of by unrestricted public sale, I feel it my duty to say a few words of explanation to my numerous friends and patrons who might have wondered why a business as prosperous as mine should enter into such a proceeding. It has been known to but a few that about five years ago I entered into partnership with a gentleman who for some time has not taken an active part in the business. Having decided recently to dissolve this partnership, we have agreed that it would be only fair to both of us to dispose of the art objects in which we are interested at a public sale, under the management of the American Art Association. While I naturally regret to see this unique collection—the result of my personal and indefatigable researches all over Europe—scat- tered to the many who will be purchasers, it is necessary for me to do this in order to carry on my new enterprises along personal lines and on a much larger scale.

Even more than an industrial revolu­ tion, it has become a cultural survival project known as DOBAG, a Turkish acronym for Nat­ ural Dye Research and Development Project, which has restored the ancient art of handwo­ ven carpets and established the first-ever woman’s rug weaving cooperative in the Islamic world. Boehmer will give a lecture, Nomads of Anatolia, at 7 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 13, in Hudson Audi­ torium, Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art. The lecture is free and open to the public as part of JCCC’s Scholar-in-Residence program. A reception with Boehmer begins at 6 p.m. During his Sept. 13-17 residency, Boehmer will also address JCCC textile classes. Boehmer’s passion for native rugs began when he was teaching in Turkey. Using thin-layer chromatography, the chemist was able to ana­ lyze the dyes used in old Turkish rugs and match the vibrant colors to their original plant sources. Under Boehmer’s guidance, weavers stopped buying petroleum-based dyes and returned to Indeed, the DOBAG Project has raised the the natural plant dyes for their wool.
