Art panels from the handlooms of the Far Orient as seen by native rug weavers
A 1910 Chicago trade catalogue published by R. R. Donnelley and Sons for Pushman Brothers, Chicago importers of Oriental rugs, presenting rug designs for the American trade. The pictures are photographic reproductions of woven rugs shown flat and cropped, mostly in muted greys and browns, with prayer niche, medallion, and all-over vine patterns that a designer could draw on for border and field layouts.
