Hand woven Persian and Turkish Ethnic Oriental rugs and textiles are a timeless art form featuring age-old designs and traditional weaving patterns used in distant times and by far-away cultures. A visit to Silk Road Collections in Santa Fe, NM is like taking a journey to all the major carpet-weaving regions of the world, both past and present.
My personal relationship with antique, natural dyed Persian and Turkish rugs began when I was 5 years old. I grew up in Northern Syria. It had one of the largest Armenian communities in the Middle East; and combined with the Kurdish weavers in the area; traditional rug weaving was everywhere. I saw the rug makers almost daily on every corner.
In 1998, I officially opened Silk Road Collections Oriental Rug Store in the heart of downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico within the historic Santa Fe Plaza area. We are located at 112 West San Francisco Street (Suite 110). Are you talking about Antique Oriental Rugs or New World Rugs? I often travel to major rug producing regions to purchase hand made oriental rugs, textiles, folk art and ceramics.
During the 20th century, the designs and styles of antique Persian and Turkish Oriental rugs began to change as western demand turned tribal cottage industries into commercial productions. Pressure to meet world market demand challenged the weavers ability to preserve traditional antique Oriental rug design and master craft techniques.
