Our Story

Salman and Mehdi established Rugs 2 Restore to carry on the traditional family business of rug repair, restoration and cleaning. Both are from north-west of Iran, and are hugely proud of their heritage. Clearly, rug making is a key part of Persian culture, and rug-weaving still plays an important part in the economy of modern Iran. Hand-woven Persian rugs have long been regarded as objects of high prestige since ancient writers gave them their first mention. For generations, Salman and Mehdi’s families have been weaving rugs in this part of the world.
