Welcome to the Moghadam Collection

Dear visitors ,

I would like to extend a very warm welcome to our site.

For over half a century, it has been my greatest joy to share the artistry, history, and cultural heritage embodied in the thousands of carpets that compose one of the world’s most distinguished collections of Oriental weavings. Each piece, whether a rare antique treasure, a masterpiece from Persia’s most revered weaving dynasties, or an exquisitely crafted contemporary creation, tells a story, carrying within its fibers the legacy of empires, the hands of master weavers, and the timeless beauty of an art form perfected over millennia.

This collection, meticulously assembled over decades, spans the full spectrum of taste and tradition. From museum-worthy Safavid and Qajar-era rarities to the finest modern interpretations by living masters, every carpet has been chosen not only for its aesthetic brilliance but for its ability to enrich the spaces it graces. Whether for the discerning collector, the passionate connoisseur, or the admirer of decorative arts, there is a piece here to inspire, captivate, and endure for generations.

From the very inception of my journey, I have been guided by a singular principle: to offer only the most extraordinary carpets, paired with the highest standard of service. This unwavering commitment to excellence, combined with a deep respect for tradition and an unrelenting pursuit of beauty, led to a singular honor: the Moghadam Collection being named Fournisseur Breveté du Prince Souverain de Monaco, the official supplier to H.S.H. The Sovereign Prince of Monaco.

This esteemed relationship with the Princely Palace traces its origins to a shared passion for the sublime artistry of Persian carpets, one first kindled by the legendary elegance of Her Serene Highness Princess Grace, our very first royal client. Her appreciation for the intricate craftsmanship and timeless allure of these masterpieces laid the foundation for a bond that endures to this day, uniting the Moghadam name with the highest echelons of taste, heritage, and refinement.

To own a Persian carpet is to become part of its story, one woven through centuries of history, artistry, and royal patronage. It is my privilege to guide you in discovering the perfect piece, ensuring that its next chapter is as illustrious as those that came before.

I have dedicated my life to promoting the art and skill of high-quality carpet creation. It is a passion that has travelled through me unto my son, so that the next generation of lovers of this precious art may continue to benefit from the dedicated and innovative spirit of the Moghadam Collection.

Each purchase of a Moghadam carpet grants you the right to receive a certificate of authenticity and the right to a full exchange for up to 5 years after the original purchase, which may consist in a credit to buy another carpet or the sending of a replacement piece. This guarantee, which I created in 1965, remains a unique approach and reflects our commitment to each of our carpets as works of art with a life and a soul. It is perhaps this respect and attention to detail that makes our carpet restoration workrooms some of the best in Europe, trusted by the world's most eminent museums and private collectors. Our hands will undertake to restore any harm that a carpet has suffered, from the tiniest cut to the most impressive damage.

Wherever you may be, Monte-Carlo, Paris, Tokyo, London, Moscow, or elsewhere in the world, my team will be there to personally take care of appraisals of value or restoration needs, to present one or many carpets, whilst all the time getting to know you and your personal tastes better.

We invite you to explore our world, where every thread tells a story. Discover the exceptional services of the Moghadam Collection and join us in celebrating the enduring artistry of Persian carpets.
