Fascinated by the areas Arts and Crafts heritage and inspired by the spirit of the Peasant Arts tradition, whose artisan communities set-up workshops and weaving houses in Haslemere, with the aim of reviving and conserving hand-crafting techniques in England, and along with their Hugenot-weaving predecessors, Anas and Sandre moved to Wey Hill in Haslemere and established The Oriental Rug Gallery Ltd in 2007.

“We see ourselves as ‘Custodians of Rug Craftsmanship’ , where The Oriental Rug Gallery Ltd is a treasure-trove of opportunity for our customers to enrich their lives with traditional woven craftsmanship and enjoy the unique beauty and enduring legacy of these fabulous weavings, for years to come.”
