There is a certain look that a rug acquires when it has been subjected to a few generations of life. It becomes, with the passing years, no longer solely a decorative piece, but part of the narrative to a story. The design is less prominent, the colours have faded and the wool has worn so that the warps and wefts finally have their moment in the light. Such a rug will give any room, traditional or modern, something special.

There is, however, often a problem. These antique rugs are hard to find and often full of holes that make for a perilous passage as you traverse them with your Martini. At the Rug Gallery you will find a collection of Afghan vintage rugs (meaning they are somewhere between 25 and 50 years old), that have been repaired, cleaned and evenly trimmed to achieve the same effect as an antique piece. And, best of all, they come without holes.
