Antique Rugs

An antique rug, by trade convention, is at least 80–100 years old. Beyond the dateline, what matters is provenance — region, construction, dye, condition. We do not over-sell age. We sell the piece as it is, with the documentation to back it.

The collector's notes — provenance & patina

Every antique in this collection has been physically reviewed in our Boston atelier. We document the region (Anatolian / Persian-tradition / Caucasian / Central Asian), the approximate decade, the dye composition (vegetable / synthetic / mixed), the knot type and density, and any restoration history. The product page tells you what we know — and what we don't.

Why buyers choose antique: The patina is impossible to fake. Decades of careful use soften the palette and tighten the wool in ways that newly-made rugs cannot replicate. A 1920s antique Oushak from a known workshop, in good condition, will hold or appreciate in value across the next 50 years.

What to inspect on a product page: The condition photos (front, back, edges, ends), the provenance notes, and the disclosure of any restoration. We share both.
