I'm so pleased with the Persian Sarough I purchased recently from the Persian Rug Village. They have such a large selection of high quality rugs to choose from. It was such a pleasure dealing with someone so knowledgable and passionate for his products. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a rug to visit the Persian Rug Village. The overall service is simply first class.

Superb service. Astonishingly knowledgeable and kind. Explained our rugs in great detail. Time spent in the company of Mosen is not time wasted. Many thanks for your kindness and consideration.

After having 2 rugs successfully cleaned by Persian Rug Village (and being very impressed with the workmanship), when I decided I was in the market for a rug, this was the first place I thought to visit. They took the time to educate me about the rugs, their origins and styles and the process for selecting just the right beautiful piece for my room. I love their philosophy: to live with the rug before committing to purchase it. I would highly recommend Persian Rug Village. Amazing customer service and very fair pricing. Delighted with my purchase.

Ive bought four carpets from Persian Rug Village over the years, and they are truly wonderful! Theyre very beautiful, and even after twenty years they show no sign of age at all. When they need cleaning, the amazing Mosen collects them, washes them, and brings them back looking better than ever. I cant recommend Persian Rug Village highly enough... I just wish I had a bigger flat so I could buy more carpets!

My rugs were cleaned with love and hard work really bringing them back to life. No nasty chemicals, The Persian Rug Village is customer friendly, lung friendly and environmentally friendly. Mosen the owner shares his incredible knowledge as the rugs are picked up and returned. All of the above for an extremely reasonable price. In my opinion there is nothing more that anyone could ask for.
