As Seen In
“Owning a quality vintage Turkish rug can seem an unfulfillable wish if you’ve been sifting through the overpriced carpets in internet bazaars or fondling the chintzy reproductions in big-box stores. Though not quite a genie in a lamp, Revival Rugs—a direct-to-consumer firm that an Oakland-based couple runs with friends stationed in Istanbul—can set you up. For as little as $135, you can have an authentic accent rug or, for $400, a 5-feet-by-8-feet Turkish carpet with enchanting, hand-knotted arabesques and richly dyed wool.” read more
“Revival marries the tangible sense of discovery that comes with shopping the bazaar with the reliability of a data-driven tech company.” read more
“Area rugs are up there with sofas as one of the more terrifying things to buy for your home. First, a rug takes up a ton of a real estate, so there’s no hiding it if you don’t like it. And then there’s the fact that it’s typically one of the more expensive decor purchases you’ll make. Does it have to be this way? The answer is actually a big, fat no. We can say this confidently because new vintage rug startup Revival Rugs is already making the rug-buying process way less paralyzing.” read more
“...there are two options when buying a rug: spend a few hundred dollars on a machine-made rug of middling quality, or invest thousands in a high-quality, hand-woven piece that will last for decades. New direct-to-consumer company Revival Rugs wants to bridge quality and price without sacrificing either.” read more

“I love these Kilim pillows from my friends @revival_rugs. They’re made from old repurposed rugs from Turkey. I love the idea of giving something old a new life so much.” read more
“My coastal she shed got a dash of color with some pretty kilims. The patterns and hand weaving look so pretty with white shiplap and woven furniture.... Adding these unique pillows to our home makes it feel cozy and inviting and because each of these pillows is one of a kind. I love that they are all different and each tell a story.” read more
“...they are selling the rugs they source in Turkey directly to US consumers. That means that folks like you and me can enjoy gorgeous and unique vintage pieces without spending big bucks from retailers who have marked them up.... if you’re not ready to commit to a rug right now, you can bring the handmade, artisan look into your decorating with cushion covers made from remnants of beautiful vintage rugs.” read more
