La collection Kelekian. : Étoffes & tapis d'Orient & de Venise
This 1900 Paris catalogue by Jules Guiffrey, published by the Librairie centrale des beaux-arts, records Dikran Kelekian's collection of Oriental and Venetian textiles and rugs for collectors and art connoisseurs. Its plates show woven and printed fabrics with dense medallion and floral repeats in rust, cream, and dark ground colours, offering designers historical pattern structures: circular medallions tiled in lattices, arabesque vines, and stylised flower clusters.
