These were your merchants in choice garments, in clothes of blue and embroidered work, and in carpets of colored material, bound with cords and made secure; in these they traded with you, specifying the textile and decorative goods that these Mesopotamian and Syrian traders supplied.

The emphasis on quality and craftsmanship reflects the high standards of Tyre's market.
