"Painstakingly researched and richly illustrated, this pioneering work presents some major insights into Ottoman textiles, showing how markets and manufacturers, not just patrons and sultans, influenced their production.

"Painstakingly researched and richly illustrated, this pioneering work presents some major insights into Ottoman textiles, showing how markets and manufacturers, not just patrons and sultans, influenced their production. This book is a powerful appeal to discard the belief that written sources tell the whole story: objects themselves have so much to teach us!"--Suraiya Faroqhi, author of Artisans of Empire: Crafts and Craftspeople under the Ottomans and A Cultural History of the Ottomans: The Imperial Elite and Its Artefacts "This book skillfully guides the reader on a journey into the long history of Ottoman textiles, considering magnificent, mundane, and rare artifacts. With an innovative emphasis on craft and a transnational perspective, Phillips reaches beyond the Ottomans' well-known relationship with Italy to investigate their connections with Iran, Egypt, Eastern Europe, and, most importantly, India, providing a wide-ranging analysis of Ottoman textile culture."--Giorgio Riello, Professor of Early Modern Global History, European University Institute "Phillips's study is based not only on an impressive amount of work but also on an impressive conceptualization of the place of textiles within an early modern world that stretched from England in the West to India in the East. It is a brilliant and engaging book that brings the study of textiles into the mainstream of art history--where it belongs."--Scott Redford, Nasser D. Khalili Professor of Islamic Art and Archaeology, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
