In the last discussion board, Sophia first showed this Chuval - which I think is wonderful. Someone, I think it was John, thought he remembered having seen that skirt before. The reference is figure 93 in O'Bannon's translation of Moshkova. He shows the mate to Sophia's in the Turkmenistan National Carpet Museum with a circa 1880 date. Regards, Marvin
