Description
The Victoria and Albert Museum has an unrivalled collection of Iranian textiles from the first half of the nineteenth century.
There are over 900 examples of woven, printed and embroidered fabrics, which were used as garments and accessories, as well as for furnishings and religious textiles.
This book presents, for the first time, over 200 Qajar textiles, and describes the political and economic context against which they were produced.
Many of these beautiful fabrics will seem surprisingly familiar - so strong was their influence on European manufacturers.
This collection, published with new photography and superb details, will interest interior designers, textile students and anyone involved in fashion.
