Rug rental
Beautiful rugs,
for as long as you need.
Hand-knotted Persians, contemporary wool, and modern silks for real estate staging, editorial photo shoots, weddings, pop-up shops and corporate events. Delivered, placed, collected. Weekly rates.
Why rent a rug
A rug makes
the photograph.
A hardwood floor photographs cold. A staged property without a rug looks “between tenants,” not “ready to live in.” One well-chosen rug tells the buyer how the room works, draws the eye to the fireplace or the view, and softens every photograph in the listing.
Buying a staging rug outright is expensive, especially for a property you don’t actually live in. Renting is the answer: you get a well-made, hand-knotted or designer-grade rug for the two to four weeks you need it, then it goes back. The rug shows up clean, placed by our crew, and collected without lifting a finger.
Same for photo shoots, weddings, pop-up retail, and trade shows. A borrowed look, rented honestly.
Rental categories
Four inventories to draw from.
Persian & Oriental
8×10 and 9×12 hand-knotted antiques for living rooms and dining. Red, ivory, navy and muted tones.
Contemporary wool
Muted contemporary rugs — geometric, abstract, solid. Neutral grounds that shoot well in any interior.
Silk accents
2×3, 3×5, 4×6 silk and silk-blend accents for editorial close-ups, entry foyers and stair landings.
Runners
2.5×10 through 3×14 hallway and kitchen runners for narrow spaces. Muted traditional and modern both.

Four common use cases.
Real estate staging
Empty listing needs warmth. One 9×12 Persian in the living room and a runner in the hall — sold price goes up 2 to 4%.
Photo shoots
Magazine editorials, catalog shoots, interior photographers. Swap rugs between set-ups to vary the palette.
Weddings & events
Ceremony aisle runners, welcome-foyer rugs, VIP lounges. Weekly pricing fits a three-day event window.
Pop-up shops
Retailers testing a month-long lease in San Francisco or Palo Alto. A rug makes the space feel permanent.

Rental FAQ
Before you reserve.
How far in advance should I reserve?
Two weeks for common 8×10 and 9×12 sizes; four weeks for statement Persians or during spring staging season. Last-minute rentals sometimes possible — call us.
What if the rug gets stained at an event?
Light stains are included in the rental — we expect the occasional wine spill. Major damage is charged against the security deposit at repair cost, never retail replacement. We are reasonable.
Can I buy the rug if I fall in love with it?
Yes. Many of our rental rugs are for sale as well; we will apply 50% of the rental paid against the purchase price.
Do you offer staging-agency pricing?
Yes. For stagers who rent five or more rugs at a time, we offer tiered discounts and a net-30 account. Call us to set it up.
Is there a minimum rental period?
One week. Three-day event pricing available on request but typically at the one-week rate.
Who places the rug on site?
Our crew of two delivers and places. You or your stager direct the placement. If furniture is already in the room we ask that it be movable — we do not lift sectionals or pianos.
