Oriental rug restoration across Greenwich, CT.
Reweaving, fringe binding, foundation repair, color-matched yarn — the Cohen family has restored antique oriental rugs from Greenwich estates for more than a decade. Conservation-grade, hand-done on our restoration bench. Backcountry barn finds, heirloom Persians needing structural repair, antique Aubusson with edge damage. Complimentary pickup throughout Greenwich and the surrounding Connecticut Gold Coast. Restored by hand in our Greenwich atelier.
Greenwich rugs on the restoration bench.
The antique rug populations of Greenwich are some of the most restoration-rich in the country. Backcountry estate houses on Round Hill and Stanwich hold the antique Persians and Aubussons that come down through families across generations. Belle Haven and Old Greenwich townhouses keep the carefully traded antique Oushaks. Estate-clearance pieces from the older houses on John Street arrive at the atelier in need of foundation work after decades on the floor.
Each one is restored by hand on our bench in the Greenwich atelier. The master artisan personally writes the scope, reweaves warp and weft to the original tension, color-matches yarn from a master dye-stock, rebuilds selvedge, hand-binds fringe. Conservation-grade work. Never glued, never patched, never outsourced.
- Backcountry barn-find antique Persians
- Heirloom rugs with foundation loss along the warp
- Antique Aubussons with edge damage
- Fringe loss after long storage
- Selvedge rebuild on rolled rugs
- Reweaving where moths gnawed through
How we restore your rug, by hand.
From your Greenwich home to our restoration bench — and back to your door, in better condition than the day it left.
Assessment by the master artisan.
We collect your rug from your Greenwich address and the master artisan inspects by hand — foundation, selvedge, fringe, pile. A restoration plan is written rug-by-rug: what is reweave, what is fringe-bind, what is foundation rebuild, what is color-matched yarn.
Hand-restoration on the bench.
Conservation-grade hand-work on the restoration bench. Reweaving warp and weft to original tension. Color-matched yarn on the loom. Selvedge rewoven, fringes hand-bound or replaced. Never glued, never patched, never outsourced.
Inspection + return.
Once restored, every rug is washed, dried, and inspected a final time by the master artisan before delivery. We return it to your Greenwich home in better condition than the day it left, fully insured the entire way.
