The Rug Shop has roots going back over 50 years to Herat. The Caters, who run the business, value honesty and connection. They invite customers to take rugs home to try before buying. This rare level of trust is part of what makes The Rug Shop unique.
Over the decades, this trust has almost never been broken. It shows the deep belief the Caters hold in the goodness of people.
Milton Cater is passionate about Persian rugs as art. He challenges the view of rugs as lesser than fine art. In his words, “There’s fine art and domestic art, and it’s so wrong.” As he gestures to the walls filled with colour and beauty, he says, “We consider it art.”
At The Rug Shop, we believe Persian rugs are true works of art. They deserve to be appreciated for their craftsmanship, story, and soul.
Whether you’re a collector or a first-time buyer, our team is here to help. We offer honest advice, authentic rugs, and service you can trust.
