Basil Scaljon Rugs

Basil Scaljon Rugs Rug consultations, buyer and seller of old rugs. I maintain a small but excellent inventory of choice pieces. Looking forward to working with you.

I believe passionately that certain rugs and carpets are legitimate art expressions and search for good rugs that approach that standard.

My website has had a facelift--click to take a look. I've added videos and a section for my new Rug Fragments as Art. Let me know what you think!
