I had a great experience one night near closing time at a rug store in Istanbul. Though I knew nothing about rugs, the owner was still willing to show me his wares for educational purposes, fondly recounting the yester-years of driving out of town on weekends to visit renown factories/shops of Özipek. He taught me the names of various design elements/themes,, and how to count knots (cm^2) -- among other things. I can still vividly recall my surprise (and joy?) when I discovered that the unassuming, detailed portrait of a rooster in silk had a KPSC of ~25 (he just waited while I counted -- and recounted-- the knots): He also commented on the general decline in quality over time, and the detrimental effects Chinese-made Hereke rugs had on the rug market, etc, etc. Your video just revealed to me how priceless (and honest) that night of education truly was!
Addendum: Just saw your other videos *specifically* about Hereke Özipek. He exhibited similar passion!

They are lucky that their rugs are worth half of what they were 40 years ago. People who owned Georgian furniture didn't get so lucky, usually losing 90% or more. These things went out of fashion and were replaced by mid century modern and Scandinavian design. It is nice to see that as millenials and zoomers are aging their taste in these older fashions is coming back. The ironic thing is that these rugs from the 70s and 80s are probably actually going to end up being good investments some day.
