I am the fourth generation progeny of carriage trade Persian rugs, the oldest expression of man's imagination in a medium that have manifested love and terra beauty ever since 400 BC. An art which has been traded for over 2,500 Years finally brought a hefty $200,000.00 for a rug and that was identified as the most expensive rug ever sold up until the early 70's from a estate out of Wheeling, WV. But during the deep recession of June 2008 a 7'x7' silk rug which had been sold 8 years earlier for $500.000.00 brought a shocking $4.5 Million. Yet in a deeper recession of October 2009 a 5'6"x3'6" silk rug sold for more than $220,000.00 per one square foot again over $4.5 Million.
