“I am writing to you in order to share how happy and over joyed our buying experience was with Asmara. Everything was conducted with the highest level of care and professionalism. My sales liaison happened to be Joe Sparicio. He guided us effortlessly through the whole process of first, selecting the right rug, then he took the time to find a matching sample for us to review and actually live with for a while to ensure our satisfaction. He then took the extra step of monitoring the shipment and delivery process. We purchased a high-end rug, all online. Please don't have any hesitation, this company is first rate and actually cares about your purchase and satisfaction. I want to share with other prospective buyers that this company is one of only a select few that is actually a pleasure to purchase from online.”

"Your attentiveness to my client’s needs regarding size, color textures and price was unsurpassed. You were there with answers and samples and assistance throughout the process of selecting the rug that they adore! Thank you SO much. It is almost as if you have become a new friend. My first experience with Asmara has been one of the very best in all of my 30 years in decorating. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again in the future."
Cathy Eldridge | Style & Inspiration Ltd | Zionsville, PA
"I am an interior designer with 30 years experience working with textiles and oriental rugs. About 20 years ago I discovered Asmara and I have been passionate about Asmara's beautiful rugs ever since. I don't know any rug manufacturer who produces a rug that is more artistically pleasing than Asmara. I looove the patterns, colors, and texture... particularly in the savonnerie design. Joe Sparicio is the consummate professional and he will help you find the perfect rug for your client."

“The rug is in place and looks lovely. I have always had a problem with the decoration of this bedroom which my very critical husband deemed boring. Back from a business trip he saw your rug and announced he finally approved the decor, as the rug 'pulled it all together'. I thank you very sincerely for the impeccable advice and service you unfailingly provided.”
Karen Brezina | Project Manager/Designer | HF Planners, LLC | Raritan, NJ
“I had a very positive experience with Joe Sparicio from Asmara. He was extremely helpful and was readily available to answer any questions that I had. We received a large sample early on in the design process, which was critical with our selection process and to show the client in order to make the final decision. We were in constant contact regarding the delivery and any other questions that arose. Joe was very flexible and able to change the delivery date of the area rug without much notice. I would definitely use Asmara again.”

“Thank you so much for helping me find the perfect rug! Your follow up and attention to detail made the experience very pleasant. Having the samples sent to our home helped me make the decision. I am very busy and your follow up at my request kept me on track. You worked hard to make sure I had my rug for the date I desired. It is obvious you love your business and enjoy making your customers happy! Thank you very much!”

“We loved the sample process and were even more excited when the full sized rug was placed in the room. We purchased the rug before all our furniture was delivered. As the pieces arrive, we see how well thought out the rug colors are and how well they compliment our furniture. We were thrilled with our new rug from the moment it was laid out in the room, it added such understated elegance to our living room. We would certainly turn to this company for our next rug purchase. Joe encouraged us to bring in a sample and that was so helpful. The sales team was very attentive and professional.”

“In my thirty years of business, it would be difficult for me to designate a source that is not only defined by its unique, exquisite designs but also by the quality and kindness of their owner and staff. Working with Asmara is not work but sheer joy.”

Asmara you make our job, as discerning designers a pleasure. Thank you!”
Mary Ann Hart Beardman | Interior Designer | Bailey & Hart Interiors | Lake Forest, Illinois
“As a design studio in the Chicago area I carry Asmara rugs. These rugs are so superior to any other rug line we carry. I personally have he Asmara Branches needlepoint rug in my own home. This rug has an off white background and one would think it couldn’t be in a high traffic area. Let me tell you that this rug can be anywhere. I have had dogs with muddy feet, grandkids with food, and parties where adults have spilled wine and food and the rug cleans beautifully. Actually, in 8 years I have never had it cleaned. The superior wool that Asmara uses enables it to clean up just by me doing it myself. As far as dirt and mud, I just let it dry and vacuum it. All dirt comes right up. I love this rug and never worry about traffic or spills. The best rug I have ever owned.”
Sharon Seymour | Retail Customer | Rhode Island
“Thank you all, Joe, Alexis, Paul and Abid. These are works of art and I am so fortunate I found them, found you, and that our new home will be filled with this warmth and beauty! The dining room rug has exceeded all expectations! The Oushak was always a winner. I actually think about these rugs a lot, since now they are a part of our life here. Our 6 year old granddaughter has been raised in Eastern Europe, although she has had some exposure to listening to English from her mother. She visited our son, her father, for a month here this summer and this was her first time immersed in an English language environment with no speakers of her native language. She got very tired some days and would ask for “no more words” and then often she would retreat to a space on the living room rug (that lovely soft Oushak) and rest her brain. The Greek key rug made a great series of roads for her little car or her plastic horses or her beanie babies, and the needlepoint rug in the family room was where she spent much of her play time. Many of my joyful memories of time with this little girl are involved with the beautiful rugs as her background, her environment.”
Leigh Brown Jacobs | Retail Customer | Florida
“Joe, I wanted to take a moment to say how much I appreciated my “Asmara” experience. The needlepoint rug is beautiful and unique. It is the perfect complement for our room. Everyone who visits mentions it. Working with you and your staff was a delight. You were caring and helpful in every detail. I hope to repeat the experience on another occasion.”
Pam Liptak | Retail Customer | New York
“Joe, the needlepoint rug was actually delivered today and I love it!!! Thank you so much for all of your help. Working with you has been a pleasure. Mr. Barsamian and his assistant delivered the rug this morning. He is a very nice and knowledgeable man, very professional. The rug has a few creases in it that should flatten out but I am not worrying about it. It looks beautiful! Thank you again for everything!”
