Persion rugs are gorgeous.
Deep, luscious, and mysterious.

Thanks for the video, Richard. Love your rugs – they look gorgeous both in our upstate rustic cabin and our classic-modern NYC apt. They are beautiful. Can’t wait to get more.

I purchased several of these rugs from Richard Rothstein and I’m planning to get some more. They look awesome on the floors and as wall hangings, especially in our bedroom and library/dining room. What the video can’t show is how wonderful they feel to my bare feet in the morning. I honestly can’t imagine my house without them.

Thanks. This is a tremendous improvement over the great slideshow you used to have. Wonderful and inspiring.

Wonderful video. It’s amazing how fast these weaver’s hands move. The rugs are exquisite. I never realized that so many weavers can work on a loom at one time.

This is a marvelous video, but it makes me feel like a lazy oaf considering how often I stop weaving or spinning for a cup of coffee or to stretch or chat. These women know how to work hard and enjoy their work. Their speed is amazing, and their pleasure in collaborating on a rug makes an individualist pause to consider whether there is a better, more satisfying way to work.

Fantastic video! How wonderful to see beautiful carpets as they are being created by women artists, who are valued and appreciated instead of exploited. These carpets must have great Karma!

This is amazing. So nice to see how it’s really done. The weavers hands move so fast. Your rugs look fabulous.

Great video but only an appetiser for all the information on rug weaving that I’d like to have.
