Our Services

From sourcing the right rug to restoring a family heirloom — we handle every step with care and expertise.

Rug Sales & Custom Sourcing

The Right Rug for Your Vision

Whether you are a designer sourcing for a client project or a homeowner looking for the perfect piece — we work directly with you.

We will review your space, palette, and vision, then walk you through our current inventory. We also can create a tailor-made rug — custom in size, colour, and style — built exactly to your specification and vision.

We work closely, take the time to understand what you need, and don't stop until the result is right.

Resizing & Alterations

Made to Fit — Precisely

A rug that is close — but not quite right — can become exactly right. We resize hand-knotted, hand-loomed, and hand-tufted rugs for any space. Whether a room has changed or the rug was made for somewhere else entirely, we can reshape and refinish it cleanly.

Bay Area pickup and delivery available, and we receive shipments from anywhere.

How it works

  1. Email us photos of your rug along with your target dimensions.

  2. We return a written quote with our recommendation and timeline.

  3. Arrange pickup, drop-off, or shipment — we work around you.

  4. Resizing and refinishing begins, handled by hand throughout.

  5. Rug is returned or delivered, ready to place.

Repair & Restoration

We Restore What Matters

Holes, fringe damage, moth damage, pet accidents, low pile areas — restoration is our primary specialty, and we treat every rug as if it were our own.

Getting started is straightforward. Send us photos by email and we will assess the damage at no charge. You'll receive a clear quote and our honest recommendation. Pickup, drop-off, and shipment are all available — we work around what suits you.

Hand Washing & Cleaning

Clean Through and Through

Over time, rugs absorb dust, oils, and odour — even ones that look clean. Our hand-washing process refreshes the fibres and brings colour back to life, without damaging the weave or the dyes.

We use Orvus soap — a natural, non-bleach formula specifically suited for wool and delicate fibres. No machines, no shortcuts.

Our process

  1. Thorough dry dusting to remove embedded grit and debris.

  2. Full submersion — washed carefully on both sides using Orvus soap.

  3. Rinsed completely to remove all residue.

  4. Hung to air dry — no heat, no machines.
