Visit our Showroom to view one of the finest collections of Hand Knotted rugs in the Midwest. Our knowledgeable sales staff is on hand to provide a rewarding selection experience.
The knotty rug company began almost by accident in 2003 when the owner Darrel Wingo, a specialty paint contractor at the time, was asked by a client to help her find a rug. Darrel began researching rugs and instantly became enthralled with the history, artistry, and beauty of hand knotted oriental rugs. After a brief time the collection of rugs was exceeding his personal needs, so he began selling them from home. Once the garage was full and regular driveway sales were booming, it was apparent he needed to find a better location for selling these beautiful rugs. The first retail location was inside of a large antique store in Kansas City's Crossroads district. In 2007 a permanent home was established at 4510 Stateline Road in the Art and Antique district just west of the Country Club Plaza.
Welcome to the Knotty Rug Co.!
Here you will find a very personal selection of all varieties of what is commonly referred to as Oriental rugs. Of course, it is really so much more, but begin by exploring the beauty of the collection, or dive right into the size and style you are looking for. Darrel Wingo, the owner, has personally selected every one of the rugs in the collection. He is really the curator of a fabulous gallery of Art. Most of the rugs are one of a kind, hand knotted wool, made by craftsmen just as they have been for centuries. Here you will find Antigue,semi antique and new rugs that will amaze you with detail and artistry. Imagine the time and talent required to create one of these rugs by tying each knot, one at time, on a loom. Truly amazing!
