The kilim arrived today! And in great shape—no moisture issues. Plus, my family loves it—it’s “soooooo me,” they say! So thank you so very much for your cooperation and fine help all the way through. I wish we could do it again very soon, but I will have to control myself for a while!

I had to write you and let you know that I just got back from my trip, and saw my package from you...........I was VERY anxious to open it, and I just can't tell you how absolutely PERFECT the rugs are! They are just fantastic! These rugs are going in a home in Colorado, and they are exactly what I had wanted. I just cannot believe I was able to find such wonderful, quality hand-woven kilims on a website.......sometimes you really don't know what you're ordering.......and it can be a very anxious time on waiting to receive what you HOPE you think you should be getting. Please let your weavers know they should be VERY proud of their work.......it is simply beautiful, and unlike any other I have seen. I cannot wait for my decorator to see the rugs......I know she will be very impressed! I truly enjoyed working with you, you were so helpful, and VERY dependable.........a MUCH added bonus in the computer-age!

This afternoon I received the rugs and they are absolutely beautiful. Also thank you for the thoughtful gifts that were included. I like to thank you for making this process so pleasant and professional. You are an example how business should be done. Your prompt and direct and clear dealings made everything easy for the costumer and it was a pleasure doing business with you and the company.

Thanks. What a great way to shop for Kilims. A lot better and more trustworthy than taking a vacation to Turkey to shop for Kilims -one would need a trusted guide and much knowledge. This is fun, confidence-inspiring andI'm getting an education to boot. Eagerly awaiting receipt of my shipment.
