There are not many places in Tucson to see woven rugs in ornate frames, hanging on the walls that resemble high quality oil paintings with the realistic image-like subjects rendered as refined and intricately as if the Old Masters painted them. Even more impressive is that these pieces of art made of thread and fiber were hand created! Amir Karimi, owner of Karimi Rugs in Tucson began expressing his artistic flair weaving fibers that would become masterpiece rugs as a child. Karimi has a true passion for fine quality rugs. It is in his blood. Karimi Rugs has been a Tucson institution in the rug business for over 25 years.
