Meet the owner

Imagine going back centuries each and every day, tapping into a different era and listening to the stories of the time. Imagine connecting with the mind of an artist who created an object of beauty in times long gone. Imagine bringing that object of beauty back to life.

This is what David Bakhshi of the third-generation family business Royal Antique Rugs does every day in his carpet restoration work. “When I have a new carpet to work on, I first need to take the time to understand where it comes from and to feel its energy,” he explains. “What I mean is that someone created it and that person had a certain mood. It shows in the carpet. I have to plug into that in order to successfully complete my task.”

The furthest back David has gone is 700 years with a rug from Persia. “It was very fragile so needed a very special approach,” he says. “We only use natural cleaners. Anything harsh will damage the colours in the carpet.”

Alongside Persian carpets, David also cares for those from Turkey and India.

    Royal Antique Rugs surpassed all my expectations. Their knowledge about rugs and integrity whether it's about selling you a rug or restoring one of your own back to its original beauty has made me a customer for life. I highly recommend this store for anyone looking to purchase a vintage rug or needing expert attention towards your own!
