Founded in 1946 by Harry Raphaelian and his son George, the Raphaelian Rug Company
became a cornerstone of New York City’s high-end design scene, situated on the iconic 1st
Avenue between 58th and 59th Streets. From its inception, the company established a reputation
for exceptional antique Oriental rugs—each piece a masterpiece of craftsmanship, artistry, and
history.
For Ronald Raphaelian, son of George, the allure of these extraordinary rugs began at a young
age. Fascinated by their intricate motifs, vivid colors, and timeless construction, he knew his path
was to carry forward his family’s legacy. With an unparalleled eye for quality, a deep respect for
tradition, and decades of hands-on experience, Ronald took over the business in 1980, elevating
the Raphaelian name to even greater heights.
Under his leadership, Raphaelian Rug Company became the go-to destination for discerning
collectors, celebrated designers, decorators, and an elite roster of celebrity clients. Each rug
Ronald sourced and cared for over the years reflects not only generations of expertise but also a
passion for preserving artistry and heritage.
Now, as these storied pieces make their way to an online auction, Ronald invites you to discover
the remaining treasures of his collection. Each rug is unique—woven with history, alive with
color, and waiting to transform the perfect space in your home or for your clients. With every
thread, a story unfolds. With every rug, an opportunity to own a piece of timeless beauty.
Explore the legacy. Bid on history. Bring home a masterpiece.
