"I brought my 100 year old Sarouk in to Solano Rug Galley for a very overdue cleaning and restoration. Three weeks later, I came home with a richly glowing gem! The colors were glorious, the texture, soft and smooth, the problems areas gone. Iraj is a gifted craftsman who clearly knows his business and brings a true passion toward restoring these lovely treasures back to their original splendor. Trust Solano Rug Gallery to care for your new rugs or your family heirlooms!"

-Trudi Boskin, Albany, CA


 

"Thank your for your kindness and professionalism.  My rug came out 
beautifully and I’m very pleased with the results. 
I’ve remarked to multiple neighbors that I was impressed that you wrote 
me a lovely note which I received the day after I first stepped into your 
shop. I will definitely recommend you to others."
- Nancy K., El Cerrito, CA

- Bob Dillard, Oak View, CA

 

"It was a pleasure doing business with you; very unlike my eperience in modern stores where there's no sense of human contact or mutual respect."
