And while Tagdisi doesn't just let anyone walk out with one of his vault pieces, he does maintain a large collection of authentic, hand-woven rugs and carpets of all shapes, sizes and designs to fit anyone's budget in the front galleries at Oriental Rug Bazaar for those who are looking to bring a one of a kind piece of art into their home. The art of hand-weaving tapestries is not completely dead and there are still craftsman practicing in Tabriz and other parts of the Middle East and the Orient. However, with the embargo in place, there will not be any new pieces from Iran available in the U.S. for the foreseeable future and the inventories at authentic Oriental rug stores like Oriental Rug Bazaar are rapidly being depleted by collectors and enthusiasts which will continue to drive prices even higher.

The Oriental Rug Bazaar has been Houston's only trusted source for Oriental rugs for over a hundred years and has worked extremely hard to distinguish its collection of unique, hand-woven oriental rugs and tapestries from the pop-up rug shops that typically use unethical sales tactics to sell machine made or cast-off rugs at sharply discounted prices. Unlike these disreputable dealers, Oriental Rug Bazaar sells only authentic hand-woven rugs and tapestries of the highest quality. Oriental Rug Bazaar also provides education and guidance to novice buyers, repair and cleaning services to help care for and preserve rugs, and appraisal services for existing rug owners.
