Textiles and rugs carry a deep message of love, life and philosophy with them from the East.

he apprenticed with Hassan Ahani, a prominent rug merchant in Tabriz, who specialized in the sale of semi antique rugs. Amir quickly learned the nuances of the rug business and after just four years left Ahani to open his own rug shop.Initially specializing in the sale of semi antique rugs Amir went on to expand his business to include the sale and restoration of antiques rugs. He soon found himself employing a staff of restoration specialists. It was from his employees that Amir first began to learn rug restoration and it was working alongside them that he went on to hone his craft. As Amir says, “It’s not enough for me to sell the rug – I have to learn the inside of the rug; you need to know the soul of the rug.” all while he continued to run a successful business.By 2007 Amir was living his dream of owning and operating a successful rug shop in Tabriz, the rug capital of Persia. Being of Azerbaijani heritage, Amir was an ardent supporter of the preservation of Azerbaijani language,music and culture within Tabriz Iran. Such activities were considered subversive by the Iranian government and Amir became the target of political repression.
