Huge inventory of Antique and new rugs with the lowest price guaranteed! We provide specialty services including rug repair, hand washing, and appraisal.
At International Oriental Rug Gallery in Lakeland, FL we are passionate about oriental rugs. Having grown up with them, we have seen first-hand their arduous but fascinating months-long journey from raw wool to exquisite pieces of art through a maze of highly skillful processes. These processes include designing, meticulously matching colors, dyeing the wool exactly to those very colors with very narrow margins, and mapping the rug pattern on a graph paper – knot by knot. Then, each and every knot is tied by hand by highly skilled artisans, who follow up with a delicate washing and finishing, shearing by hand-held clippers, rewashing and final herbal, tea-wash, antique or silver-wash finishing, binding the edges and finally removing any unwanted tufts or knots – laboriously one by one.
We have the necessary expertise and experience to help you select the right rug. We realize that buying rugs can be a daunting task, especially if you are trying to match or coordinate the rug to your décor. We allow you to take home one or more rugs on an approval basis without any obligation to purchase. For larger, heavier hand-knotted rugs, we will be glad to bring them to you for a trial without any charges or obligation to buy.
We provide specialty care for rugs including rug cleaning, repair, and restoration to keep your new rug looking its best for years to come.
