This 100% silk Qum features poetry from Sa'di.

Mehdi's adage about Qum: the city of bad ayatollahs and good rugs.

Shifting gears to something equally important!

We always love to see you in the showroom. Shopping for a rug is important. Please make an appointment so we can give you our best service. If you just stop by, we may be out of the showroom for a delivery. Maybe we don't have the right team on hand to show big rugs. Or perhaps the person you wanted to see is unavailable.

Just like any welcoming host, we’d appreciate a heads-up on your visit! Call us at 713-522-7870 to make an appointment.

Some rugs tell stories. Others survive them.

This beautiful Persian Mahal rug came to us with extensive moth damage from years gone by, but with careful restoration, expert shearing, and multiple washes, it's well on its way to a new chapter.

Our goal is never to make an antique rug look new. It's to preserve its history while giving it the care it needs to be enjoyed for generations to come.

Over cloak weavers turned rug weavers?

Absolutely.

Guys, I think this rug might be from Armenia. But let's ask Mehdi.

He says YES. This antique Karachov Kazak rug was handwoven in Armenia. It arrived in need of serious restoration, but we are certainly happy to have it here with us for loving care.

Kerman Lovers!

Mehdi has a beauty for you today. Ornate and elegant, this classic Persian Kerman features vases of flowers emerging from the border to surround a central medallion design.

Handwoven in central Iran almost a century ago, it has spent most of its life in Texas and is ready to bring genuine joy to another generation of rug lovers. In other words, our Kerman is a lot like Mehdi Abedi!
