In 1973, Bahram Shabahang began selling Persian carpets in the United States, and opened his first store nearly a decade later. His interest, however, was an extension of a long tradition. Since the 16th Century, his family has been a purveyor of carpets starting with his ancestors who oversaw the work of the rug weavers in the King Tahmass Safavieh’s workshop.
Bahram Shabahang met Geoffrey Orley in the bazaars of Isfahan while they were both in their early twenties before Bahram moved to the United States. Over the last 35 years Geoffrey and Bahram have been business partners, selling a premier collection of antique carpets. While still selling unique and collectable antiques, they set out with a new vision.
In 2001, Bahram set out to create his own Persian carpets. While the market was not without Persian carpets, faster, mechanized ways of production threatened the authenticity and quality of the art form. Absent in the market were distinctly creative carpets made by techniques once used to create the masterpieces we now associate with Persian carpets. Bahram Shabahang decided to take on the feat of reintroducing this lost art. From cultivating the right materials to design conception and technique, Bahram manages every step of the process to create the finest carpets. Orley & Shabahang is proud to be the exclusive creator and vendor of these fine carpets.[x] Close
