Book Description
As the DLB Journey continues and the world of interior design evolves, what stays constant is the timeless beauty of old rugs. Throughout the years my vision has changed to a new appreciation of different antique rugs. My emphasis has always been in the classical and more expensive. Today I am more attracted to color, boldness of design and rugs that would add an extra layer to modern interiors. As our client base evolves and vintage rugs become more popular I see myself in the forefront of inspiring and exciting our clients whose eyes are being opened to the beauty before them. For the very first time I dared to put pricing on the rugs illustrated in order, to express that philosophy to enable the younger potential client to entice and excite their imagination. For the first-time buyers of antique rugs this catalogue will be a revelation... for the seasoned, a visual delight. Nader Bolour

Searching for Hassan
Author: Terence WardPublisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982142820
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
The “astonishing and deeply poignant” (The Washington Post) memoir of one man’s search for a beloved family friend explores the depth of Iranian culture and the sweep of its history, and transcends today’s news headlines to remind us of the humanity that connects us all. Growing up in Tehran in the 1960s, Terence Ward and his brothers were watched over by Hassan, the family’s cook, housekeeper, and cultural guide. After an absence of thirty years and much turmoil in Iran, Ward embarks on a quixotic pilgrimage with his family in search of their lost friend. However, as they set out on this improbable quest with no address or phone number, their only hope lies in their mother’s small black and white photograph taken decades before. Crossing the vast landscape of ancient Persia, Ward interweaves its incredibly rich past, while exploring modern Iran’s deep conflicts with its Arab neighbors and our current administration. Searching for Hassan puts a human face on the long-suffering people of the Middle East with this inspirational story of an American family who came to love and admire Iran and its culture through their deep affection for its people. The journey answers the question, “How far would you go for a friend?” Including a revised preface and epilogue, this new and updated edition continues to demonstrate that Searching for Hassan is as relevant and timely as ever in shaping conversations and ways of thinking about different cultures both in the US and around the world.
Women in Iran from 1800 to the Islamic Republic
Author: Lois BeckPublisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252029370
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
The role of women in Iran has often been downplayed or obscured, particularly in the modern era. This volume demonstrates that women have long played important roles in different facets of Iranian society. Together with its companion, Women in Iran from the Rise of Islam to 1800, this volume completes a two-book project on the central importance of Iranian women from pre-Islamic times through the creation and establishment of the Islamic Republic. It includes essays from various disciplines by prominent scholars who examine women's roles in politics, society, and culture and the rise and development of the women's movement before and during the Islamic Republic. Several contributors address the issue of regional, ethnic, linguistic, and tribal diversity in Iran, which has long contained complex, heterogenous societies.
