Handmade rugs range from silk to wool
Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
New York artisan rug company Tufenkian (pronounced too-FEN-key-an)
recently opened its first Texas showroom in Dallas' trendy
International on Turtle Creek design suites. Feng shui-conscious and
environmentally friendly firm Clodagh designed the 2,800-square foot
showroom, next door to Allan Knight.
All of Tufenkian's floor fixtures are made by hand and run the gamut
in style. Modern, traditional, Arts and Crafts, and primitive designs
are found in the core Tibetan wool collection, while classic subdued,
Persian-style designs make up the Armenian collection. The Designer's
Reserve collection features silky carpets by famous artists such as
Barbara Barry, Vicente Wolf and founder James Tufenkian.
Prices are per request. But don't expect any bargains - rumor has it
a 9-by-12-foot rug here takes 3,000 man-hours.
