Woven Concepts has a lineage dating back to Silk Road merchants. That precious history is woven into their signature handmade collections of floor and wall coverings. The boutique rug company was founded by three women in the Hakimian family: Sheida, Halleh and Jasmine. Together with a team of expert artisans, they produce high-end rugs and support social and environmental initiatives.

To make their collections distinctive, Woven Concepts assigns one team of weavers to each, inviting them to amplify their unique approaches and ideas. The result are diversely beautiful rugs ranging from the otherworldly NASA-inspired Odyssey collection to the minimalist, luxe aesthetic of the Bonn collection. A special artist-designer collaboration with Design Milk founder and designer Jaime Derringer generated the UnTitled collection, which draws from Shodo calligraphy to create Japanese-inspired patterns. 

Woven Concepts has worked on major interior projects around the world, including commercial, residential, corporate and hospitality spaces. The offices of Wells Fargo in Washington, DC, and New York City; Mitsubishi in Newark, New Jersey; and AMC Networks in New York City are among their prestigious clientele. Lobbies for the Ritz Carlton and suites at the Langham Hotel and Waldorf Astoria in New York City also feature their designs. 

By using sustainable materials and adhering to socially responsible techniques, Woven Concepts creates made-to-last products that elegantly combine tradition with contemporary style.

Today, there are few elements of decor as consistently beautiful as vibrantly colored, intricately patterned antique rugs. The legacy of fine Indian rugs and carpets dates back to the Mughal Empire, with Jalal-ud-Din Akbar in the 16th century establishing workshops for carpet weaving based on Persian practices. Combined with the aesthetics of Indian art, a new rug tradition was born.

In India, these Persian-inspired rugs and carpets were often made with lush materials, including silk, velvet and pashmina, a type of cashmere. It could take laborers as long as 15 years to weave a single carpet. Many of these rugs and carpets were created for royalty and frequently used inside palaces and mosques, particularly on special occasions.

Though the carpet weaving stemmed from a Persian tradition, Indian rugs and carpets featured designs that predated Persian influences. These complex patterns included floral, geometric, and animal motifs.

Indian rugs remain among the most coveted decorative items today. Browse 1stDibs for a wide variety of vintage, new and antique Indian rugs and carpets to establish a lavish focal point in any room in your home.
