Dear Marvin,
Of course, there's common ground. The number one choice of the dealers and "miscellaneous" respondents, also the number 2 choice for Belouch collectors and "rug collectors", was a wonderful Dokhtor-i-qazi prayer rug. And of the 76 textiles in the exhibition, 66 were not among the top 5 choices of any group of respondents. So there wass pretty good general agreement about what ws good and what wasn't.
On the other hand, a balisht (pillow) was the top choice of Belouch collectors, ranked fourth for "miscellaneous respondents", but was not even among the top five for dealers or "rug collectors".
Regards,
Steve Price
