Expertly Curated Vintage and Antique Rugs for an Exceptional, Timeless Selection
Small Batch Approach, Large Scale Authentic Collection, by Old New House®

Old New House® (ONH) is a New York–based, nationally recognized, family-owned company specializing in vintage rugs and home decor. Shop owners Melissa and Dave Dilmaghani founded ONH in 2011 on Etsy as one of the platform’s earliest vintage rug sellers. In 2015, OldNewHouse.com was launched to expand the Dilmaghani collection of one-of-a-kind home goods, with an emphasis on heritage-driven, collectible antique rugs and vintage carpets valued for their hand-knotted authenticity and documented provenance.
We specialize in highly curated offerings of sustainable luxury rugs and are trusted dealers for collectors and designers nationwide. Our goal is to help you find the perfect rug - whether a wall-hanging worthy antique carpet or an everyday-livable vintage rug. Our collection includes one-of-a-kind vintage area rugs, antique carpets, and hand-knotted rugs - including runners, decorative pieces, and statement-scale carpets with rich histories loved by interior designers and homeowners alike. Whether shopping our vintage rug store online or visiting in person, you’ll discover antique Persian treasures and timeless textiles that bring depth, character, and story to any space.
Our Old New House flagship brick-and-mortar store opened in 2016 in Katonah, a hamlet of Bedford, New York, located in Westchester County. Our expertise centers on vintage and antique hand-knotted rugs, with a focus on decorative and collectible Persian rugs - ranging from distressed examples to investment-grade pieces dating from the early 1800s through the mid-20th century. Complementing our extensive rug selection, Old New House also offers locally sewn rug pillows, artwork, maps, and small-batch furniture fabricated in-house here in New York.

Beyond rugs, we feature small-batch furniture, including our signature hand-made rug ottomans fabricated in-house from scratch.
