Services
Gordon MacDonald's interest in this field originated in the 1970's.
His great friend Brian MacDonald, who had spent several years in Iran (Persia), introduced him to old and antique tribal and village rugs and trappings.
Gordon had recently left university in Edinburgh where he studied mathematics and the geometric, stylised designs of tribal rugs were of great interest to him at this time.
Since then, he has continued to build on his interest and knowledge of antique rugs and carpets.
