Bradford's Rug Gallery Specializing in handmade, natural fiber area rugs and designer wall to wall.

Bradford and Elizabeth Ross opened Bradford’s Rug Gallery On March 3rd, 2006 at 297 Forest Avenue in Portland, Maine. Since the late 1990’s, Brad has been selling rugs and carpets in the Portland area and has become well known in Northern New England as one of the leading experts in the hand knotted carpet industry, both new and antique. Brad has a deep appreciation for his craft and for his loyal and devoted customers who, over the years have grown with him and become part of the family. We believe that rugs should completely compliment one’s lifestyle, whether tufted and modern, woven and utilitarian or knotted and traditional. Home interiors should allow us to be comfortable in our surroundings without inhibition, rugs in particular are meant to be lived with, not around. Bradford’s is a full service rug and carpet business, offering many types of rug washing, repairs, appraisals and in home consultations. Below is a list of some of our most notable services and links to a few manufacturer web sites. For more information on custom area rugs and broadloom carpet please call our gallery 207.772.3843 or [email protected]
