Rug Talk

“As an interior designer who has worked with clients through Ziba Oriental Rugs for the past eight years I thought a few words with suggestions on choosing your rug would be helpful. I find that choosing your rug FIRST is a better idea. That way your rug becomes your color palette from which you plan the remaining space. One must first decide what degree of color is wanted and you work from there. Obviously if you want dramatic color you may choose a vibrant patterned rug and then build upon that with fabrics and wall color/texture.  Should one desire  a more monochromatic look a rug that is basically pattern and texture of the same or similar colors would provide the palette from which to add similar colors and texture. Designers as a rule are very comfortable mixing colors, patterns, and texture as we do this everyday; however, clients are often not as comfortable in this situation so purchasing your rug first, then building upon that scheme can make a client feel more at ease. One good thing about the staff at Ziba is they are well versed in design technique and if you are not working with a designer they can be very helpful to the novice homeowner.”

“As an interior designer with offices in North Carolina and Florida it has been my pleasure to work with Mohamad Majma and his staff at Ziba Oriental Rugs. We have worked closely together for eight years and in that time whatever I needed to service my clients they have obtained for me. Antique rugs of museum quality, Nickels collectible rugs, tapestries old and new, silk rugs of unimaginable beauty are all items the procured for our firm. Because of their professionalism, courtesy, and pricing I have always looked more than competent to my clients.

Obviously the rug market is very competitive and one in which if you are not educated in that arena, you can be easily misled. Everyone at Ziba is extremely well informed in all aspects of the handmade rug industry. They have never once presented something falsely or tried to mislead either myself or my clients. Never in my professional career have I trusted in a firm’s integrity more than I have in Ziba. I welcome the opportunity to work with them in the future.”
