Rug the Rock - Your Alternative Online Option

We are not located in Calgary, but we offer free shipping and returns to Calgary and other parts of Canada.

Newborn brand in this category. We started our online sales alongside in-person sales in 2022.

We, Ellie & Hanif, both grew up in Iran, and thanks to our extensive network of rug experts, we are able to source genuine rugs from rural areas of the middle east, then ship them directly to Canada, which results in offering handmade rugs at a fraction of their retail price. Believe it or not, they are often at lower prices than many rug stores in Tehran and Istanbul, the capitals of Iran and Turkey.

We offer a diverse range of wool rugs suitable for high-traffic areas, some of which can be passed down through generations. Additionally, our collection includes collectible/investment rugs like antique and silk rugs, known for their value retention over time.
