Salari Fine Persian Carpets, Limited
Transformers in Vancouver

Salari Fine Carpet Collections is a family-run business, specializing in handknotted carpets for over 35 years. In January 2008, Salari undertook a two-month renovation to their showroom, transforming it into a space to truly showcase their selection. The current location at 2033 West 41st Avenue opened in November 1999, and specialized in high-quality, authentic Persian carpets. When Sasan Salari took over the business from his parents in 1999, the store was renamed Salari Fine Persian Carpets. Three years later, a larger space became available in central Kerrisdale and the Salaris took the opportunity to expand into the location at 2134 West 41st Avenue. After emigrating to Canada, in Kerrisdale, Mohammad opened Salar Persian Carpets at 2236 West 41st Avenue, and began to build the customer base in Canada. What started as a hobby for Mohammad, a mechanical engineer, turned into a full-time occupation and a successful business. Mohammad Salari opened his first carpet store in Saarbruecken, Germany, in 1970. The gallery was renamed to Salari Fine Carpet Collections, and a number of modern lines from leading manufacturers were added to their inventory.
