Five minutes ago I took receipt of three Afghan rugs that
Manoukian Brothers, 202-882-7847, cleaned for me. I had purchased the rugs in Afghanistan a couple of months ago. Let's say they were more than a little dusty when I bought them.
My entire experience with Manoukian was excellent. Everyone I spoke to was nice and polite, my calls were returned promptly if I had to leave a message. The entire process took just over a week even though Thanksgiving was in the middle. Most importantly, the rugs all look fantastic. They are in much better shape, and look better, than when I purchased them. Paul even gave me a rough estimate of what the rugs were worth based on similar items that he sells in his store.
I definitely recommend them.
