I liked the galleries you have of Bijar rugs, the patterns and colors in the rugs are nicer then many other galleries i have visited, this really is above par.
I agree the Gabbeh rugs are a beautiful rug for people who are looking for a handmade contemporary style rug.
I checked out the website and agree with the comment above, these truly are beautiful oriental rugs. Your collection is quite impressive.

You have very nice Gabbeh rugs. Your informational on the tribal rugs is very informative you should really think about putting it in a book of some sort.

All of these Persian rugs are nice. I agree i like the contemporary look of the Gabbeh rugs but i would love to have a bijar rug. These colors are so vibrant and it was interesting to see the comment on how the productions of bidjar rugs is down. Too bad such a really amazing part of history is leaving us.
