At the Atlanta and Las Vegas 2020 winter markets, Kalaty Rug Corporation will debut new collections at the upper end as well as add to the company’s more moderately priced K-TWO series of collections.
Kalaty’s new product emphasis this winter is primarily focused on the company’s heritage hand-knotted styles; however, there are new introductions in a variety of textures, weaves and constructions in all styles and at all price points.
“Atlanta and Las Vegas market customers will find a broad array of updated traditional patterns in modern colorways, new abstract designs in innovative colorations and with unique textural effects – some with carving – as well as sophisticated transitional styles among our newest hand-knotted rugs,” says Mike Kalaty, a company spokesperson. “Color, which continues to be one of Kalaty’s specialties, is always a critical component of new introductions, and in response to customer requests, we are bringing out a spectrum of innovative bold colors in addition to soft vintage tones at winter markets.”

“2019 was a busy and important year for Kalaty Rug Corporation,” says company president Ramin Kalaty. “For starters, it was the 40th anniversary of our company’s founding in the USA. At the beginning of 2019, we proudly saw a new generation of our family join the business. In April we celebrated our return to High Point with a combination designer seminar/grand opening party at our new IHFC showroom. And in October we brought more new product to High Point than we had ever shown previously at that all-important market. On the marketing side in 2019, we remodeled and updated our website and our popular Kalaty app. And, as our anniversary year came to a close, we have unveiled two comprehensive full-color catalogs, which we’re bringing for the first time to the Atlanta and Las Vegas 2020 winter shows.”
The Kalaty family Oriental rug business originated more than 100 years ago in Iran under Mirza Kalaty’s grandfather. Mirza Kalaty established the company in the USA in 1979, and today he and his five sons – Ramin, Mike, Farshad, Ariel and Kamran – run the company along with a new generation having recently entered the family business. Kalaty Rug Corporation continues to progress through design, innovative coloring and finishing, as well as through its commitment to provide customers with heirloom-quality area rugs and unparalleled service. Kalaty consistently maintains a vast inventory of area rug collections in a wide range of designs, colors, sizes, weaves, constructions and shapes. The company also takes pride in offering same-day shipping on most products.
