Vintage Persian Rugs

Doing Scott's Antique Market in Atlanta monthly has allowed me to meet so many fascinating characters and have access to their extensive knowledge of their trade.
Brandi & I got to have a behind the scenes look at our friend Jubin Tavakol's new showroom on Atlanta's prestigious Miami Circle.
I can not describe the layers and layers of color, texture and patina that makes these works of art so rich.
I just took lots of photographs.
Jubin is a master of his trade (in addition to holding his MBA in Finance from Golden Gate University in San Francisco) and can walk you through the specs, origin, history and provenance of each piece in his showroom, leaving you wanting to see more.
The walls are all linen white, the concrete floors finished in a clear gloss, the ceiling is black and holds rows of incandescent spot lights which all serve as the perfect backdrop for the neat piles, stacks and rolls of fine are. Walking on one literally gives you the feeling that you're rich beyond your wildest.
I couldn't resist one vain self portrait with this work of art as my background.
Here Jubin weaves a tale of this Tribal beauty that was once at auction at Sotheby's.
Towards the end of the viewing there were rugs flopped out all over the floor, rugs rugs rugs rugs!
Brandi & I were held captive in this museum environment and enjoyed every minute.
Jubin's new office, towards the back is equally as tasteful and rich as the showroom itself.

He was a most generous host and indulged our every whim, question and spastic episode of laughter shared throughout the visit. His hospitality, taste, eye and work ethic will surely bring "many blessings" as he always says.
What a bunch of characters I am so lucky to know! I'm truly blessed.
