SPEAK TO THE EXPERTS ON PERSIAN CARPETS
Discover the fi nest collection of Persian rugs, carpets and tapestries in the heart of Mayfair, London
ESSIE CARPETS, IN Mayfair, London, stocks the largest selection of fi ne & decorative Persian carpets, rugs & tapestries, in two showrooms at 62 Piccadilly (opposite the Ritz hotel ) and 86 - 89 Piccadilly. Recently, a 17th century Persian Kerman
carpet was auctioned off at Sotheby’s, New York for nearly $34 million. The history of Persian carpets goes back
to the beginnings of civilisation. They were initially woven in nomadic tents before the industry developed to larger towns and cities, and nowadays they are made in well-managed workshops. The oldest known carpet in existence is
the Pazyryk rug and it dates from the 5th century BC. It is now kept in the Hermitage Museum of Leningrad. Dealing in Persian and Oriental carpets
is not too dissimilar to making them. It demands patience, hard work and a knowledge acquired over many years.
