RAREST RUG IN THE WORLD Beyond Price Because It Was ths Earliest Piece of Pile Weaving ti Come Out of Asia. A rus that Is dated Is mure valuable than one that Is not, and because our knowledge of early wenvint is so meager the earlier the date the more valuable the nig. A date subsequent to 1S.MI does nut add much to the worth of a rug, while a date in the Eighteenth century might double It; a Seventeenth century date would be sure to do so, and It' we could Hud an other rug of the Sixteenth century earlier than the Ardehll Mosque car pet Its value over all undated piece of equal merit In other respects wight easily be threefold. Inscriptions ndd to the value of a rug in proportion as they give infor mation concerning the place or char acter of the weaver; but as most in scriptions lire merely verses from the Koran or more often from some Per sian poet we do not often get nrjcb help from that source. More important stlH ns a source of historical Information is I lie character of the design. To the pnuileed eye It can a tale unfold ami sometimes elevate an ordinary-looking rug to a peak of eminence. For example, there Is in the Kaiser Frledrlch museum In Berlin a Utile rug that would not get a bid of $10 If dlspluyed for sale In the window of a New York department store. Yet It is beyond price, und the museum authorities even refused to allow It to be loaned to the Metropol itan museum, the risk, of .the ocean voyage being thought to bo far too great to be Incurred for such a pre cious piece. It Is an ugjy little brute, but It is perhaps the earliest piece of pile weaving out of Asia. Moreover, Its design connects it willl Chinese pat terns and symbols of the Twelfth cen tury, Mongolian color schemes of the Thirteenth, Caucasus weavlngs of the Fourteenth and Italian pulntlux of the Fifteenth, ltarlly and historical In terest alone endow this rug with 'su perlative value.
