The Antique Knot

The Antique Knot Our interest in antique rugs & kilims spans over 30+ years. Our focus is looking for the archaic motif and lustrous wool with saturated colors.

We are NY based with an upcoming gallery on 74 Main Street Stamford, NY 12167. We ship worldwide. The rugs and textiles we collect fall into the antique category. We strive to discover unique pieces that will later complement any room, space, floor or wall. All major weaving regions are represented including Persian, Caucasian, Central Asian, Turkish Anatolian and Chinese, to name a few. Our rugs

feature archaic motifs that transcend time, and lustrous wool with saturated colors. All of our offered rugs and kilims are high-quality hand-made pieces that have been crafted to stand the test of time, and each is one of a kind with unique characteristics. Each carefully selected piece in The Antique Knot collection has been properly evaluated, studied, conserved, and hand-washed using our museum quality proprietary cleaning technique. So say goodbye to a dirty floor covering, our rugs and kilims are ready for your floor or hanging on your wall as textile art. Thanks for stopping by.

This antique Turkmen Yomud Kilim (Palas) was woven in the late 19th Century.
