Orley Shabahang Carpets Available Now at our Holiday Shop in Detroit – 660 Woodward Ave.

In 1973, Geoffrey Orley and Bahram Shabahang met in the bazaars of Isfahan when they were both in their early twenties.  Since then, they have built a friendship and a business, selling unique and collectible Persian carpets.

Orley Shabahang strives to be the most original creator of Persian carpets in the world through his unique designs, techniques and materials.  Bahram Shabahang finds his strongest inspiration in nature, from flora, fauna, earthly landscapes and the cosmos.  He also looks to the great artistic movements and to historical Persian architectural elements.  As he works from ever new sources of inspiration, Bahram’s designs continue to evolve and grow into innovative and unique statements.  It is his keen eye for color and form, together with his life-long passion and pursuit of carpet-making techniques and materials that elevate Orley Shabahang carpets to the highest form of functional art.
