Our History

Established in 1893 within Hamedan, Iran, the Rug Club proudly holds a storied legacy as a family-owned enterprise. Rooted in a fervor for the artistry of Persian rug craftsmanship, this tradition has seamlessly passed through generations. In 2016, Mehdi Rahimzadeh, the present owner and third-generation successor, propelled the business's reach by inaugurating a branch in Toronto.

Guiding the Rug Club since 1980, Mehdi Rahimzadeh has elevated its reputation globally, actively participating in numerous international auctions. His influence has positioned him as a trailblazer in the Persian rug export sector, facilitating the widespread dissemination of these exquisite pieces, particularly to destinations like the United States, Sweden, and Germany.

The Rug Club stands as a steadfast symbol of tradition, expertise, and an unwavering dedication to showcasing the allure of Persian rugs to a global audience. The carefully curated collection reflects 40 years of meticulous travel and sourcing throughout Iran, resulting in a distinctive array of rugs that encapsulate the country's diverse craftsmanship and rich artistic heritage.
