Rug Art International
Business Details
About
Bright and solemn foyers sometimes lean on neutral beige to set a somber tone, yet a rug store thrives where color is the story. Between Fifth and Park on the east side of 3rd Avenue, Rug Art International holds steady on the 15th floor of a midtown tower at 979 3rd Ave #1518, New York, NY 10022. Skeins of yarn and woven swatches speak louder than labels in this space, where tradition meets modern motifs.
Shoppers arrive for reasons beyond padding underfoot. Some look for museum-grade wool pieces, others for tribal kilims that weather years of travel. Orders spin from custom dye work in muted ochers and spiced greens to made-to-measure cutting that sidesteps pre-set standards. If repair and restoration feel closer to tailoring than cleaning, the shop keeps the conversation simple. After the fabric settles, small batch hand-knotted runners and vintage fragments clear the runway for the next cycle.
Without fanfare, a quiet pulse keeps the place steady: dial (212) 207-8211 for exact scheduling or sizing checks. Once you’ve narrowed the shade or set the dimensions, head upstairs or tap the directions to the 15th floor before traffic swells.
