As the DLB Journey continues and the world of interior design evolves, what stays constant is the timeless beauty of old rugs. Throughout the years my vision has changed to a new appreciation of different antique rugs. My emphasis has always been in the classical and more expensive. Today I am more attracted to color, boldness of design and rugs that would add an extra layer to modern interiors. As our client base evolves and vintage rugs become more popular I see myself in the forefront of inspiring and exciting our clients whose eyes are being opened to the beauty before them. For the very first time I dared to put pricing on the rugs illustrated in order, to express that philosophy to enable the younger potential client to entice and excite their imagination. For the first-time buyers of antique rugs this catalogue will be a revelation... for the seasoned, a visual delight. Nader Bolour
