Ireland's leading Specialists in Fine Antique Carpets, Rugs, Kilims & Tapestries, est 1980

THE NEW PETER LINDEN GALLERY is now open.

Our new premises in two storeys has been created by dividing the building in two sections with a new entrance from the side lane. From this small, but cosy and intimate, gallery we will continue to specialise in fine Antique pieces of the highest quality. For as long as they continue to be woven we will also stock naturally dyed rugs from the DOBAG project in Turkey, plus a small number of newly made top quality pieces from various locations in Iran.

In future we will only deal with original and unique pieces woven to the highest standards, in the best possible condition. Mass produced fashion driven rugs will be carefully avoided as they neither hold their value nor last the time you have come to expect from the old, properly woven pieces.

Our services such as cleaning/restoration/valuation remain as before.

A new brokering service will be available to help you source any piece of reasonable importance in our field.

We intend to keep a more active website that will include the majority of stock pieces rather than just a sample selection. Keep an eye on the site in future as we will try to put most new acquisitions on the site as we find them.

Our new business hours: Wednesday - Saturday 10:30-16:30, or by appointment.

NEW ACQUISITIONS In the current climate people are looking for alternative investments such as works of art of global merit. Antique Oriental rugs, provided they are at the very top end of the quality scale, are very rare, extremely decorative and undervalued compared to other works of art. We are actively pursuing exceptional pieces at present, such as the outstanding Khamseh rug illustrated here, Lot # 8594. For further details, click Current Stock, then Antique Rugs, and scroll down.

AN EXCEPTIONAL ARRIVAL Among our recent arrivals is this rare and stunning early 20th C Silk Souf Kashan prayer rug Lot # 8580, size 203x126 cms or 6'8"x4'2", in perfect condition throughout, straight from a Swedish collection where it has been hanging on a wall all its life.
