Prices fly for a Persian carpetTHERE is nothing that excites a professional art dealer more than the thought that he may have found a lost work that has slipped through the auction-house system, misidentified, misattributed or simply misunderstood.
Second to that is buying a work on a hunch that it might be much rarer and more special than the vendor realises—and making a killing once a little additional research proves it to be a piece of exceptional importance.

raver rav'er n.
A rave (from the verb: to rave) is a large dance party featuring performances by DJs and occasionally liveperformers playing electronic music, particularly electronic dance music (EDM). The music is amplified with a large, powerful sound reinforcement system, typically with largesubwoofers to produce a deep bass sound. The music is accompanied by laser light shows, projected images, visual effects and smoke machines. The word "rave" was first used in the late 1980s to describe the subculture that grew out of the acid house movement.[1]
銳舞,又稱銳舞派對和狂野派對,是一場通宵達旦的舞會,在那裡DJ或其他表演者會播放電子音樂和銳舞音樂。銳舞是從英文的rave音譯而來,當初這個字是1960年代倫敦的加勒比海裔居民用來稱呼派對的俚語。1980年代末期,新聞記者將這個字轉變成稱呼那些從迷幻浩室(acid house)運動中,發展出來的一種派對現象及次文化。
