Founded in 1926 by brothers Basil J. Couri and George J. Couri, and appropriately named “Couri Brothers,” the Couristan began its humble beginnings by importing fine handmade area rugs from Persia. For 80 years, the Couristan has been a powerful name in the area rug and broadloom industry. The company prides itself on having the most exquisite handmade and power-loomed floor-coverings available from anywhere around the world.
