"Nothing comparable now exists in the English language." --Walter Denny, University of Massachusetts at Amherst

Peter F. Stone is one of the world's foremost scholars regarding oriental rugs, central Asian art, rug art, tribal rugs, and rug repair. He has authored many books on the subject including the acclaimed Oriental Rug Repair.
