About Aara Rugs

Established in 2011. My father, Haji Mohammad Ali Rahmati was the creator of the new rug business in Afghanistan. Before he came along, the Afghan rug business was underdeveloped and couldn't compete with the international market. He learned to modernize the production of rugs. In the 1960's, The Ministry of Industry and Trade of Afghanistan acknowledged his intelligence and talent with rugs. They asked him to teach two to three hundred students, which they provided. The students would work closely with him, while also learning new, practical methods for rug production. In the early 1970's, after he has successfully spread his knowledge, opened up a factory of his own. It was a very successful business that introduced a new style of Afghan rugs to the world, silk rugs. Today, because of my father's hard work, I have been able to run my own business here in the U.S. It is my self-proclaimed duty to pay him back and carry on my father's legacy to the next generation.
