Gregorian Rugs

We have purchased many rugs at Gregorian’s over the past four years. They have wonderful choices, and are extremely helpful in trying to find the exact right match to our taste. We love Chinese rugs, and although they are no longer made, Scott Gregorian and his team have been doing their best to locate more of the rugs we like. During a recent shopping visit, I was pondering over whether or not to purchase a particular rug, and Scott told me to take it home, see how it looks, and if I like it, just call him to sort out payment details. I ended up loving how it looked and paid him the next day. It is great to have such a trusting and great relationship with a stellar business. Outstanding service, friendly staff, and a great selection of merchandise!

I had always wanted a Nain rug. I traveled from my home in Northampton, MA, to Newton to search for a rug at Gregorian’s. I had always heard that it was the finest and most reliable source of genuine Orientals. I found two Nains that I just couldn’t choose between. Gregory allowed me to take both of them home. Because I still couldn’t make the choice, I bought them both. Around the same time, I was having several Oriental rugs cleaned at Gregorian’s; I also had fringe replaced on two rugs and a bracket sewn on an Isfahan so that it could be hung in my living room. With regard to these repairs, Ron was obliging beyond measure, as well as fun to talk to. Gregory helped me find several different pads to try under my rugs. When they did not succeed in holding the rugs in place, he and Roberto made the 110 mile trip to Northampton to spread my seven rugs on new pads – with the pads and the service completely free! They worked carefully and with great efficiency, all the while giving me their judicious advice about placing the rugs and pads. I can hardly believe that «Helene H.» (see below) actually exists. Her opinions run utterly counter to my appreciation for the warm helpfulness of Gregorian’s staff and my enormous respect for the rugs they carry.

The Gregorian family has been providing wonderful, interesting rugs for years to customers in New England. The family is very high integrity — and their understanding and knowledge of the origins of their product is evident in everything they do. Warm and friendly showroom — which has been there forever!

If you want to buy an oriental rug — is there any other kind — then buy one from the people who wrote the book on it! «Oriental Rugs of the Silk Route,» by John B. Gregorian, available on Amazon takes you to the places where these works of art originate.
Three generations of Gregorians have travelled to the rug-​producing centers of the world — India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkey and in the old days Iran. They not only brought back incredibly beautiful rugs but a wealth of knowledge few other «rug families» possess. And you really have to experience the store — visiting is an adventure in itself.
