Yazd

The Dakhili family comes from Yazd, in central Persia, a city of merchants and weavers. The rug trade has been handed down there for generations: recognising a knot, a dye, a region by eye and by hand.

Paris, rue de Babylone

Babylone Tapis is at 51 rue de Babylone, in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. Classic and modern Oriental rugs are sold there, restored there and cleaned there. The taupe shopfront and the office with the large medallion rug are the ones you see on this site.
