We want to remind everyone that we are running great sales during the month of January, so stop by our showroom so we can help you find the perfect rug for your home or office. We have an extensive selection of beautiful handmade rugs and runners, as well as stock some machine made pieces as well for people on a budget. 

And if you have a rug that is in need of repair, Rug Ideas is your answer as we have a team of master weavers who handle specific types of rugs which they have expertise in, so you know your repair will come out fantastic. We can take care of securing ends, replacing the selvages(sides), reweaving, as well as custom jobs including new canvas backings(for tufted rugs), leather strips to prevent curling and downsizing of rugs.

And if you have had any holiday parties where your rug/s have been dirtied/soiled, bring them in or call us right away so we can help you with cleaning and stain removal to get them back into shape. Here's wishing you a Happy New Year and a festive Holiday Season...from Rug Ideas!

Beautiful Sarouk on Sale

Today we'd like to show you a wonderful Sarouk rug that is available at our showroom here in Los Angeles. It is a square Sarouk Rug, measuring 3'4" x 3'4". It is in excellent condition and can be used in a myriad of ways in ones home to liven up your decor. And right now it is priced to move at $1,150. Take a look below:

Sarouk rugs are those woven in the village of Saruk and also the city of Arak, Iran and the surrounding countryside. Sarouk rugs have been produced for much of the last century. The early successes of the Sarouk rug are largely owed to the American market. From the 1910s to 1950s, the “American Sarouk” also known as the “Painted Sarouk” was produced. American customers have an affinity for the Sarouk’s curvilinear and floral designs.

Sarouk rugs continue to be produced today, using the same methods as during early production. Known for their exceptional quality and ability to withstand decades of wear, Sarouks continue to be a best seller of the Persian rugs. They are made with a high quality, tough wool using a Persian knot. A tell tale sign of a Sarouk is usually its blue weft threads, salmon or tomato-red color mixed with ivory and blues, and a very traditional, floral style. We have a fantastic selection of Sarouk's, so come in to Rug Ideas today so we can show you just how great they are!

50% OFF All Machine Made Runners!

Right now at Rug Ideas we have ALL of our machine made runners priced 50% OFF!

There are many areas in the house that the regular carpet or rug  does not fully cover. Yet these areas too need the protection of a good rug. This is where rug runners come in. Rug runners are pretty much like rugs, the only difference being that rug runners are longer in length than they are in width. This makes them ideal for areas such as hallways, stairs and entrances that are often left bare. Placing them in traffic prone areas of the floor protects your floor from wear and tear, owing to the high traffic the area receives. And right now you can pick one up for 50% OFF!

The red and green runners in the above pics normally run $120; but right now with our 50% OFF sale, they are only $60/each. If you are looking to put a beautiful runner in your home, come to our gallery so we can show you the many colors and styles we have to offer!

There are many advantages of buying rug runners. The first and obvious one is that they enhance the look of a house. That you can use them in addition to your regular carpet or rug means your house looks more colorful and warm. Another great thing with rug runners is that you can move them to different parts of a house. They are not confined to one area as is the case with carpets. They are great for keeping the feet warm and providing comfort when walking. They are available in a wide variety of colors, textures and designs. You can buy several of them and keep interchanging them for a different look after a while. It’s a great way of improving the way your house looks.

We also have a selection of runners made from art silk (white runner and gold/red runner above), which have an extremely soft pile, feels great when walked on and has a sheen that looks very classy. These runners normally run $195 but with our 50% OFF sale they are only $97/each. Take advantage of our deep discounts to liven up your home today, at Rug Ideas!

Come See Our Rug Selection For Sale!

At Rug ideas we have a large inventory of rugs ranging from simple machine made area rugs to antique 100 year old Persian and Oriental rugs. Whatever your taste, we are sure to have a rug to fit your needs. Take a look at 2 Gabbeh rugs that a customer recently purchased:

These Gabbeh rugs are made by ladies of the Qashqai tribe in southwest Iran with hand spun wool and natural dye. The designs are simple like kids' paintings which gives some a certain peace of mind. They are nature friendly(sometimes called "green rugs") and bring a touch of style when decorating any room in the household. While they are tribal art they look very contemporary and modern. 

We sold these 2 pieces to a client in Colorado and will ship them shortly. Both rugs are from our own looms imported prior to the embargo which went into effect on September 29, 2010. Whether you are looking for a handmade Gabbeh rug like the ones above or any other kind, come see our wide selection for sale at our Los Angeles Showroom. You'll be glad you did!
