About Our Rugs

Are all your rugs vintage?

Not exactly. When we began our business we started with high quality, unique vintage finds. Since then we’ve expanded our collections to include semi-antique, vintage, like-new and new rugs. For each individual rug, you’ll see a section of the description dedicated to “Condition.” That’s where we’ll tell you all the details about your rug. Keep in mind that we ONLY sell rugs in great condition - whether they are vintage or brand new. You can learn all about vintage rugs here!

How are you able to offer your rugs at such low and discounted prices?

Good question! We don’t sacrifice quality or authenticity to get you the best prices. Instead, we buy directly from the source and bring all our rugs straight to our showroom in Charlotte, North Carolina. We also buy in quantity which allows us to pass on more savings to you. We can guarantee quality and authenticity because each and every rug is evaluated by our team, and we do not accept anything less.

What is the difference between a semi-antique and a vintage rug?

An antique rug is also vintage, but a vintage rug isn't necessarily antique. Vintage rugs are from an earlier generation. Semi-antique rugs are between 30 to 60 years old.

Are your rugs cleaned before I purchase?

Absolutely. All our rugs have been professionally cleaned. Once they hit our showroom floor or get posted online, they are ready to enjoy in your home.

Where do you source your rugs from?

Our rugs come from around the world. We find them - yes, we find them - in amazing places. We travel to wonderful places, like Shiraz, Tabriz, Tibet, Lahore, and so many more! We have extensive relationships with sellers, artisans, and makers. We buy directly through these time-honored relationships and bring our rugs (and our savings) to you.

How do I clean my rug?

You can learn all about caring for and cleaning your rug here. If you still have questions, just get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to help.
