Syndicate contentThe Antique Knot

Our interest in tribal antique rugs & kilims spans over 35 years. Our focus is looking for the archaic motif, lustrous wool weavings of merit, and saturated colors. We are specialists in hand washing rugs and kilims that reveal and restore the hidden patina lost in most weavings. Visit us by appointment or during our hours at our premier tribal rug and kilim gallery in upstate New York. Our gallery is located in the old bank building at 74 Main St, Stamford, NY - the heart of the Catskill Mountains. Contact us: 631-338-4996 theantiqueknotgallery@gmail.com
