Redondo Beach, CA (PRWEB) November 23, 2007

Catalina Rug, Inc. (http://catalinarug.com)], one of the premier American importers of fine and antique hand-knotted rugs, has announced the launch of a special rugs sale. Visitors to Catalina Rug's website or Redondo Beach showroom can save up to 50% off select styles of Pakistani, Indian and Persian rugs.

Catalina Rug sends representatives directly to Persia, India and Pakistan to find the highest quality rugs for its customers. For that reason, the area rugs featured in the Catalina Rug sale include some of the most distinctive styles from the world's finest traditional rug making centers:

  • Farahan - Many of the antique rugs that are highly valued in the U.S. were made in the Iranian village of Farahan. These rugs often feature medallion layouts and repeating motifs/designs.
  • Heriz - A Heriz Persian rug has a very distinctive appearance. Diamond medallion shapes and a mix of brown, red, pink, and blue colors are common.
  • Jaipur - Jaipur is one of India's primary weaving centers. A hand knotted rug from Jaipur will often display a cypress tree or animal forms on a red, white and blue background.
  • Mashad - Though the city of Mashad is located in northeastern Iran, Oriental rugs from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Turkmenistan are often marketed under its name because of Mashad's importance as a rug trading center. Mashad rug prices at Catalina Rug have been reduced by as much as $2,380.
  • Tabriz - The city of Tabriz in northwestern Iran produces Persian carpets with a diverse array of colors and designs. Medallion, geometric and curvilinear designs are all used, and colors range from pastels to dark tones to brightly vivid colors.

Visitors to the Catalina Rug website will find detailed information about each Persian area rug for sale, including age and knotting time. Rug sizes range from 1' x 2' - 4' to 9' x 12' or larger. Rug ages vary from new to 60 - 70 years or more.

Catalina Rug is unique among handmade rug stores for its experience and commitment to quality. The company was founded on three generations of rug import/export experience with the vision of merging traditional rug trade techniques with the latest advancements in online shopping.
