About Report

The founder of the company, Ali Ahmadi (second generation), comes from a family that knows the Persian rug business intimately. His father Gholam opened the highly respected Pars rug store in Abadan, in southern Iran in 1960. Ali learned the business first-hand from his father and now offers his valuable expertise to his clients at Wool and Knots.

This is not your typical rug store where "everything is on sale" or they are constantly "going out of business". It is a low key show full of fantastic hand woven carpets from all over the middle east and central asia. Superb collection, fair prices, and no sales pressure.

Wool and Knots is one of the most authentic and high quality Oriental Rug stores in Washington area and I can attest to that from personal experience. It has always been a pleasure when it comes to their exquisitely beautiful rugs and their friendly and cordial service. Recommend them very highly.

My wife and I went into Wool and Knots Inc on Sunday and were really happy to see all the selections of rugs. We didn't know what we were really looking for, luckily the really nice gentlemen named Ali who is actually the store owner was very nice and helped us out. We don't actually live in Bethesda, MD but just out of town, but we saw that this was the number one store for the Bethesda area so we decided to stop by. Lucky we found this place the prices were awesome and the quality of the rug is awesome. Recommend this place to anyone looking for unique rugs.
