Welcome to the Brian MacDonald Antique Rugs & Carpets Website
These wonderful pieces demonstrate the consummate skill of the weavers ofthe 18th and 19th centuries, who produced beautiful works of art inprimitive living conditions and hostile landscapes. The weavings show the richcolour palette of natural dyes, which have mellowed for over 100 years. Thespontaneity of design and freedom of expression of the weaver makes eachone of these rugs, carpets and tribal bags, a woven work of art.The newly- published 3rd edition of my book 'Tribal Rugs - Treasures of the Black Tent' is now available at the special discounted price of £40 plus postage (£49.50 retail price).
