The Traditional rug

, in its many variants and connotations, has represented for millennia the perfect combination of everyday use and work of art. A filter that contains, for those who know how to read it, a snapshot of a historical period, a style of life that cannot leave one unmoved. Each color, symbol, every story and every single knot carries with it a history made with expert hands, traditional materials often handed down from father to son. The following selections include various types of rugs represented by some of the best examples on the market, each provided with Certificates of Authenticity and Warranty.
