Kalaty Rug Corporation has announced that a new generation of the Kalaty family has joined the family business, representing the third generation of the Kalaty family now active in the company.
“Customers visiting Kalaty showrooms at this winter’s markets in Atlanta and Las Vegas have met and worked with Gabriel Kalaty, Warren Kalaty and David Kalaty, my nephews who have recently joined the company, ” said Kamran Kalaty, company spokesperson. “Once again they will be representing us at our booth #2959 at the upcoming New York Now market at the Javits Center in Manhattan from Feb. 3 – 6.”
At New York Now, Kalaty will feature the company’s 14 rug collections from the K-Two series of fashion-forward popularly priced area rugs that range in style from contemporary to transitional to traditional and in a variety of yarns, weaves and constructions.
Also at the market, Kalaty will feature the company’s three high-fashion hand-knotted accent pillows collections, which are inspired by a number of the company’s finest heirloom-quality rug collections: Pillows Bespoke, Pillows Eclectic and Pillows Soumak.
The Kalaty family Oriental rug business originated more than 100 years ago in Iran under Mirza Kalaty’s grandfather, and in 1979, Mirza Kalaty established the company in the USA. Mirza Kalaty and his five sons – Ramin, Mike, Farshad, Ariel and Kamran – today run the company.
