We are now back in the gallery with our beautiful oriental furnishing carpets and rugs, antique embroideries, silk ikats and other textiles and contemporary carpets large and small waiting for a new home, in time to get ready for the colder season.

This Japanese silk yuzen from the late Meiji period, now framed and ready as a picture to hang on the wall, is described on our textile page https://www.christopherleggeorientalcarpets.com/products/view/antique-japanese-yuzen-birodo/

Our opening times are 9.30 am to 5 pm Monday to Saturday, but Wednesday by appointment only.

In good continental manner, we will be closed for our annual summer break from 6th August. We will open our doors again on Monday, 3rd September. Happy summer holidays to everyone!
