About Y & B Bolour
Y & B Bolour is a family business dealing with antique carpets, started by Mr. Rahim Bolour, of blessed memory, in Teheran, in the early 1920’s. Through the years the business grew, and in 1978 moved to London, and added European carpets and tapestries to the inventory. In 1988 the family business decided to move to Los Angeles, continuing in the family tradition of antique carpets and tapestries, we added antique pillows to our inventory, including the publishing of three hardcover designer books.
