	Its skilled craftspeople adapted their creations to the means and desires of every part of society. For instance, most Baghdadi homes would not have been adorned with elegant colorful rugs but rather fiber mats woven of rushes, straw, and undyed hemp. Their design was usually very simple, with few decorations save for two bands of stylized writing that expressed blessings and good wishes to their owner, as is the case with the reed mat pictured here, whose inscription reads "Complete blessing and universal prosperity and continued happiness and joy to its owner." Some could nonetheless be quite elegant: the mats made in Tiberias and Abadan were described as "softer than silk" and could be folded in two as if made of cloth. Carpetmaking techniques and styles were perhaps influenced by the arrival of an increasing number of ghilman ~~soldiers~~ of Turkic origins to the city and its surroundings. Coming from colder regions, they might have introduced and ~~popularised~~ the use of thicker carpets or felts on floors in the home.
