The London Antique Rug and Textile Art Fair Unfolds on April 16-19, 2015

If you are an art connoisseur and a rug lover at the same time, you might want to head to London in a few months.

The London Antique Rug and Textile Art (LARTA) Fair is running on its fifth year, and is set to unfold on April 16-19 at The Showroom, Penfold St, London. The annual fair has become the go-to event for people who appreciate ancient rugs and carpets from all around the world.

Expect to not only witness the beauty of antique rugs but also get the chance to purchase items made from China, India, Central Asia, Persia, and the Caucasus in the early ages until the 20th century. Noted rug exhibitors such as London’s Kennedy Carpets, New York’s Hagop Manoyan and the UK’s Pars Rug Gallery will be joining the four-day event filled with an eclectic mix of rare collectible antiques and colorful decorative textiles.

If you are unable to visit the event personally, the LARTA Fair will be made available online on April 16 at 6:00 PM. Consider the online event as a virtual tour of the actual fair, as dealers will showcase their best collections online and make their contact information available for online visitors.
