About us
  Christopher Legge, “a stalwart of the English antique rug trade” (HALI 136, p.133), has over 30 years experience in antique oriental carpets. He is particularly passionate about tribal rugs. Frequent visits to Iran ensure an ever widening in-depth knowledge of Persian village and tribal rugs as well as a steady supply of fresh goods.

He is also known to a large number of people for his spirited and learned talks on oriental carpets and has started to share his knowledge and enthusiasm with groups he takes to Iran to visit the bazaars and the sights.

Important exhibitions in the past have included Tibetan rugs, Turkoman weavings, prayer rugs, saddle bags, Kurdish Jaf bags and a show of Wagirehs in March 2004.
The gallery maintains a presence at international carpet conferences and fairs, such as ACOR, ICOC and the Hali Fair.
 
Angela Seger-Legge joined the business a few years ago. She is responsible for contemporary designer rugs and is always one half of the tandem at the fairs.
 
Jackie Capon has 20 years experience as a rug repairer and takes care of all aspects of restoration to handmade rugs brought into the gallery.
