When we, the Bagheri family, first journeyed from Tehran to Asia, it wasn't merely to trade in hand knotted carpets and rugs, but to showcase the largest handmade oriental carpet and rug collections in the region, with unrivalled range and variety. But that’s not all.
Generations of our family have meticulously woven a priceless tapestry of our own. One of closely knit relationships with the most famous master weavers and renowned workshops, producing the most exquisite traditional Persian carpets as well as the most fashionable contemporary carpets in vogue. These invaluable ties benefit our clients in terms of unquestionable quality and authenticity, value and choice of size, color, shape; material and styles.
We travel the far flung borders of hand knotted carpet producers worldwide to acquire the best carpet collections at source, be they Modern, Tribal, Kilim, Renaissance, Silk, Antique & Collectable, City Master Weave; as well as exclusive customized modern carpets uniquely designed for a particular client.
At the Orientalist, we see in our hand knotted carpets more than just beauty and utility. Because locked in each and every knot is the patience, perseverance and passion of the carpet weaver, using all her skill, creativity and expression to create an enduring work of art. Ultimately, we would like to have earned recognition not merely as purveyors of fine hand woven art but as ambassadors of the hand knotted carpet world.
