Types of Rug We Buy
The entire process is online. No appointments. No courier needed to start.
Take three photos in good natural light: the full front of the rug, the reverse (showing the weave and knots), and a close-up of the pile, fringe, or any damage. Lay the rug flat if you can.
Include something for scale — a tape measure or a coin — and note the dimensions (length and width, with or without fringe).
Our specialists review every submission and respond within 48 business hours. We will identify the rug type, assess its age and condition, and explain what we believe it is worth on the current market.
You will always receive a clear explanation of our valuation — not just a number.
If you are happy with our offer, we agree terms, arrange collection or delivery, and pay you promptly. If not, you walk away with no obligation and no charge. We are happy to answer questions at any stage.
We know the difference between a Tabriz and a Heriz, a Qashqai and a Bakhtiari. Our team has handled thousands of rugs across every major weaving tradition. You get a valuation that reflects real knowledge.
We price based on the current collector and dealer market — not the low figures offered at house clearances, charity shops, or general auction houses with high commissions.
Our valuation service is free. We charge no appraisal fee, no commission, and nothing if you choose not to sell. You receive an honest assessment at no cost.
Most submissions receive a full valuation within 48 business hours. No waiting weeks for an auction house appointment or chasing a reply from a dealer.
We explain every element of our valuation — origin, age, condition, market demand. If there are factors that reduce value, we tell you clearly and explain why.
Your photos and contact details are handled securely. We have built our reputation on discretion — particularly when working with estate and inheritance situations.
We specialise in handmade rugs from the major weaving traditions. Here is a guide to what we look for.
Hand-knotted rugs from Iran, Turkey, Afghanistan, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Age, origin city, and weave quality are the key value factors.
Rugs over 80 years old (antique) or 30–80 years old (vintage) are often our most sought-after purchases. Age can significantly increase value even in worn condition.
If you have inherited rugs and are unsure of their value or origin, we can help. We handle single pieces and full collections from estates, probate, and house clearances.
Flatwoven rugs including kilims, soumaks, and dhurries. Tribal kilims from Iran, Turkey, and the Caucasus are particularly sought after for their bold geometric designs.
Send us the photos anyway. Part of our service is identification — we will tell you what we believe the rug is, where it was likely made, and approximately how old it is, as part of the free valuation process.
