One of the 19 companies that will feature in COVER’s exciting FORZA TAPPETI: THE RUG REVOLUTION show in April in Milan is Amadi Carpets.
What the West Hollywood-based Ahmadi family don’t know about producing the highest quality rugs is not worth knowing. Amadi Carpets is responsible for making some of the finest weavings being made today in Afghanistan. With sixty years of experience in the rug industry the family team manage to stay ahead of the in-crowd; the Amadi’s stunning ikat design rug collection appeared well ahead of the current ikat craze in interior design, proving that the company are not just an authority but also an innovator and trendsetter.

Ikat design rug, Amadi Carpets
The Ahmadi familyunderstand well what elements leading interior designers look for in the highest quality handmade carpets by virtue of their long experience of making carpets in their native Afghanistan and through their successful retail store in Los Angeles. The company’s Ikat Collection pre-empted the worldwide trend for the Central Asian textile pattern, and the firm’s recolouring and rescaling of these design continue to set the standard for these transitional weavings that combine the best qualities of the traditional and the contemporary, not unlike the family themselves.
COME TO MILAN TO SEE AMADI CARPETS AND SO MUCH MORE!!
