About Abdul
My Story
Passion & Knowledge
A Lifelong Love of Rugs
Abdul Safi is the founder of Safi Rugs. He is from Afghanistan. He learned how to reweave rugs since 1982, learning this unique art in Peshawar, Pakistan — and he brought his passion to America.
He lived in Manhattan, New York and repaired rugs ever since. Then, he moved to Atlanta, Georgia. Since then, Abdul Safi has been repairing, reweaving, and cleaning handmade rugs from all over the world, whether antique or new.
Safi Rugs is reputable for satisfying customers by repairing fringes, edging, patching, washing, coloring, and cleaning any type of rug. With almost 40 years of experience, we have the credibility and knowledge to handle any piece.
We are a family that values all of our customers, and we make sure to satisfy them by providing the best services. Art takes patience, and we have the dedication to work on these masterpieces. I take pride in restoring rugs to their original splendor with tradition and craftsmanship.
"With every stitch, a rug comes to life again."
"My arms slide round the leopard's golden ruff and I am bound by threads of color to be hunted forever through fields of silk and wool, chased by frozen horses, another player in the weaving fields of Bukhara."
— Margo Roby

The Lodge at Sea Island
Among the projects I'm most proud of is my work with The Lodge at Sea Island — one of Georgia's most prestigious properties. I was entrusted with sourcing and restoring rugs for their distinguished interiors.
This work reflects the level of trust and expertise that Safi Rugs brings to every engagement, from private homes to world-class hospitality venues.
