More Oriental Rug
Notes by Barry O'Connell

In 1980 Hali, Vol. 3, No 1, the late Robert
Pinner and a British rug
dealer Michael Frances published Star-Kasaks/Sternkasaks. This was a
detailed look at the known Star Kazaks at that time. The most enduring
part of the article are the four groups into which Pinner and the rug
dealer divided the rugs. The Hali Star Kazak groups types A, B, C, and
D continue to hold up well to this day.
I take a look at Star Kazaks in Star Kazak
Rugs: The Erikson Type B Star Kazak Rug and I laid out the
types in Star
Kazak Rugs: Ornaments of Star Kazak Rugs.

This is a classic Type D
Star Kazak from Don Wheeler of Birdshakes Oriental Rugs.
Between 1969 and 1975 Don bought and sold over 3,000 rugs of
this quality. Selling to most of the big "Name" collectors and dealers
of the day. Don has graciously agreed to share some of his great rugs
with us.
Of this rug Don Wheeler wrote:
My Star Kasak was purchased by me in 1972
or 73 for $500 from Ed Derallian in Santa Cruz California. I
sold it to a close friend Mickey Marino in 1975 upon the closing of my
Gallery. Since that time I have lost touch with my friend and the
rug.....
