Drawing

Drawing, the particular rendering of form and line, can be extremely important to collectors. For those who are interested in classical and urban rugs, drawing will be an indicator of first-rate, precision weaving. For those who collect village and tribal or nomadic pieces, loose or erratic drawing may be quite desirable, as an an indicator of cultural vitality, expressiveness and authenticity. There is no single standard or value associated with drawing, but it is very often a factor in the decision to buy a rug or pass on it.
