Often you will find that your rugs fringes are beginning to fray and looking rather untidy. This is just about the right time to get those worn fringes repaired and secured again. Repairing fringes of rugs early is a straight forward process and less costly than full rug repairs. This Persian rugs side cord was damaged by a puppy.

Thames Oriental Carpets specialises in antique oriental rugs and tapestries and has over 20 years' experience in collecting rare and valuable pieces from around the world. In February this year a 16th century Isfahan Persian carpet reached three times its high estimate attracting a bid of US$1.93 million at Sotheby in New York.
We advise our customers that any redecoration or new interior design scheme should focus on the rug as the first thought simply because it is often a considerable expense and it is easier to find curtains and cushions to match rather than the other way around. Frequently we are asked to find a rug to match material which is usually quite complicated and it becomes a frustrating process.

"The service from Thames Oriental Carpets was excellent from start to finish. Yari is a true expert who is thorough in what he does, punctual and reliable. Following a clean and repair, our rug now looks rich and vibrant. We were concerned that some of the damage could not be repaired but nothing was a problem for Yari. Our whole customer service experience was professional and seamless. We are extremely happy with the end result"

We have a large Indian rug which was in need of repair & cleaning after 30 years of constant use in our living room. It’s edges were breaking down and it looked tired.
We took it to Younes after reading other testimonials, and he made a quick & thorough examination of what was required. He estimated 3 weeks to clean & repair it. Whilst the rug was with him, he gave us periodic updates, and it was ready within 2 weeks. It is now back in position, and looks set for another 30 years!!
Younes's knowledge & workmanship are first class, and we can't recommend him too highly.

This is the second time I have used Younis at Thames Oriental Carpets. Cannot recommend enough.
First occasion we purchased three small bedside sized Persian carpets, in 2019.
Today, Jan 2020, we have purchased a living room Persian carpet 8ft x 4.4ft. Superb quality.
We were undecided on our first visit with 3 options, which Younis encouraged us to take home to try first. We returned with a favourite and again were given 3 further options. Not many, if any, places that will let you do this.
Highly recommend a visit, hundreds of carpets in stock.

We visited the shop to view a rug found on the web site. Younes also showed us some similar rugs. We decided to try out 2 in situ. This enabled us to choose a suitable rug which we are extremely happy with. Many thanks to Younes for all his help.

We have a valuable Chinese carpet which we bought in Hong Kong 35 years ago. We have had it cleaned around every three years. This is the first time we've used Thames Oriental, and I must say the result is far better than any previous company, and the cost is much more reasonable. I can recommend this company 100%!

Excellent service. Had a Persian rug left to me by my dad when he passed away- had not been cleaned for at least 30 years! This did not cause the company owner any issue or concerns. The rug is now beautifully clean and looks like it probably did new 60 odd years ago. Very very pleased with the result and the exceptionally professional and courteous service and at an extremely reasonable price. The shop itself holds some fantastic stock - well worth going to visit if you are contemplating a rug purchase. We enjoyed taking to the owner both when we dropped our rug off and when we collected.

Amazing place. My puppy chewed the edge of a new Pakistani runner and I thought we'd have to bin it. Younes had it cleaned and repaired it for a very reasonable price - it looks like new. The store is like a treasure trove full of beautiful carpets; I can't wait to go back and buy something.
