Rug Consignment and Trade-in

Trade-In & Consignment

Did you inherit an Oriental rug that you have no interest in using? Are you remodeling your home and in the market for a new one or possibly downsizing from a larger home? Before you assume there is no value to your handmade carpet, we would be happy to look at your antique rug and possibly offer a credit toward your purchase of another one with us. As one of the most trusted antique Oriental rug galleries in Dallas, our clients turn to us for trade-ins, consignment and appraisals. Give us a call, send us photos or stop by so we can take a look.

Overview of Oriental Carpet Consignment

Selling your vintage rugs or anything else “on consignment” means you place the item in the care of the seller who displays the item in their store. Upon selling the item, you and the seller share pre-determined amounts of the sale price. For example, if you had a fur coat you no longer wore, you might consider taking it a consignment shop to get more for it than you would if you sold it outright. If your fur coat was sold for $1000, you would get a percentage of that amount. Some consignment shops have set percentages on items while others are more flexible about the percentage they make on items sold.

If you have vintage rugs you no longer use, why not bring them into Esmaili’s Rugs and Antiques to sell on consignment? We have experts who will carefully evaluate your rug, determine its approximate age and where it was made and provide you with an estimate on the rug’s value. From there, you can decide whether you wish us to sell the rug for you on consignment.
