We had a great experience working with this business. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs. They were thoughtful about how to clean our valued rug to give it a fresh life after flooding damage. They also have a gorgeous inventory of many rugs available to browse and buy!
Nabi Nasseri started helping his mother in her Oriental rug shop when he was a six-year-old boy. He went through school and studied to be an electrical engineer, but never lost his love for oriental rugs. He has always seen more in the rugs….the architecture of their design….the structure incorporated in their manufacture. Studying computers in school gave him even more appreciation for oriental rugs; he realized that the women who make the rugs have incredible skills. Today, having left his engineering career, he owns the Art Underfoot gallery in Old Town Alexandria. Stepping into the store is like entering Ali Babbas cave. It is a large deep space with oriental rugs from floor to ceiling, including unusual tribal pieces.
