Pointer Post - The Repair of an Antique Oriental Rug

Regular readers of our 13909 Antiques Blog will know that we have, a few times in the past (Here - Here - Here) higlighted our good friend, Mr. Shahin Kia, and his Artistic Oriental Rug Shop, in Belmont.


Mr. Kia is too modest to admit that he is a Master, when it comes to the knowledge of Oriental Rugs, certainly one of the best in this country, and, perhaps, beyond.

This is evidenced by the Collectors who, when looking for a certain Oriental Rug, or for the repair of one, turn to Mr. Kia.

Recently, an Antique Chinese Oriental Rug was brought to Mr. Kia's Artistic Orientals shop. It had been poorly repaired in the past, and this person wanted it corrected, done right.


In his post Oriental Rug Repair, Mr. Kia explains this, and shows the "Before" and "After" photos of the rug, and it is astounding - you would never believe that a repair was made, that the Antique Chinese Oriental Rug wasn't still in it's original state.

Check out the Oriental Rug Repair post for yourselves.

And, if you are thinking about, or looking for, a Vintage or Antique Oriental Rug, or need one cleaned, or repaired, you can't do better anywhere other than visiting Artistic Orientals in Belmont.
