Keep. I added a couple sources and removed 2 negative tags that no longer apply. The organization is significant in supporting an investment market in Oriental rugs, by its appraiser certification and its screening of reputable dealers. Since rugs can be hugely valuable, this is crucial and it would seem the organization is important, like a diamond appraisers network... hmm, see American Society of Appraisers about gem appraisers. Notable, sourced. --do ncr am 17:03, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nice find on the sources, Doncram - thanks. Looks good enough for me. Since no one else has commented, I'm withdrawing my nomination. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 03:06, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
