Couristan Area Rugs: A Good History
Couristan has been known as one of the best manufacturers of area rugs. The company has existed for many years and has gained much popularity because of the high quality rug products they provide in the market. This establishment was placed on its feet by 2 brothers in the year 1926. From then on, the company started importing fine handmade area rugs from Persia. These two brothers took pride in the quality of their rugs.
The name of Couristan area rugs was derived from “Couri”, which was the name of the company and “stan”, which was a small region where weaving villages were situated.
Nowadays, Couristan is still running strong in the rug industry with over 25 collections available for handmade area rugs imported from all over the world, and over 60 collections of broadloom rugs. Their rugs are usually imported from Napal, China, and Pakistan. The company believes that nothing comes close to the quality of a fine handmade area rug. They offer a variety of styles including those of antique, traditional, trendy, elegant, and casual looking rugs – plus they also feature some Oriental rugs coming from different areas of the Orient.
