That's how it all began

This is the book, my father Mohammed Pakzad, published in the 1970s. It is still one of the reference publication about Iranian Carpets and Rugs, written in German language.
Many of the exhibts, published in this book are part of my collection, which I inherited from my father.
I would like to share the beauty and the fascination with you, dear reader!
