Our Story

From the Grand Bazaar of Tabriz to a Melbourne showroom with real authority.

This page concept makes heritage a competitive advantage, not a hidden paragraph.

Founders of Rug Advice

Family-Owned Expertise

Third-generation knowledge is one of the business’s strongest differentiators.

Rug Advice already tells a compelling story: a family-owned Melbourne business with roots in the historic Grand Bazaar of Tabriz, direct access to specialist sourcing, and a long tradition of handmade rug knowledge passed down across generations.

This redesign gives that story pride of place and positions Vahid and Mana as trusted guides for collectors, homeowners and designers who want more than a basic online catalog.

What The Story Page Should Do

Move trust-building content higher in the journey.

Explain provenance

Why Tabriz matters, what sourcing relationships look like, and how heritage affects quality.

Humanize the business

Show the founders, the showroom, and the specialist knowledge behind every rug recommendation.

Support premium pricing

Ethical sourcing, fair trade and artisan-made craft give the customer a reason to value authenticity.

Natural, Ethical, Sustainable

A calmer way to communicate craftsmanship and responsibility.

The current site includes strong language around natural materials, organic dyes, fair trade sourcing and traditional techniques. Here, that material is turned into a more elegant narrative and can easily become a repeatable WordPress content block across collection and product pages.

  • 100% naturally made materials and traditional methods
  • Support for artisans and fair-trade production
  • Rugs positioned as durable woven art, not disposable decor
