It is with great pleasure as of October 2024 we can announce the acquisition of the remaining stock of Oxianna Books originally formed at Long Ditton Surrey UK in 1995 by Ed and Maggie Stott. That together with our existing stock of out of print books, maps and literature some of which acquired along the way from Abingdon Books, now makes Clive Rogers Oriental Rugs the likely leading UK supplier of out of print rug literature.
