Jaipur Rugs, the renowned purveyor of luxury handcrafted carpets and rugs, proudly announces the opening of its most recent flagship store at Chelsea Harbour in London. This marks a significant milestone as the company’s 16th store and 10th mono-brand store worldwide, and its third international location following successful openings in Milan and Dubai. The company has expanded its presence significantly, now boasting stores in various locations across India and around the world.
In India, the stores are located in Jaipur, Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Surat, Ahmedabad and Chennai. Internationally, the company has established a strong presence with stores in Milan, Dubai, China, Russia, the United States and now, London.
Founded on a legacy of craftsmanship and innovation, Jaipur Rugs has rapidly gained international acclaim for its exquisite rug designs and carpet designs, and a commitment to sustainability. The new London store is poised to become a cornerstone of its global strategy, showcasing the brand's diverse collections and reinforcing its presence in key international markets.
"In just a few years, our journey from Jaipur to the world has been incredibly rewarding. The opening of our London store represents a pivotal moment for us as we continue to bring the artistry and tradition of Indian craftsmanship to discerning customers worldwide," says Yogesh Chaudhary, director of Jaipur Rugs.
This expansion follows a series of strategic moves by Jaipur Rugs to strengthen its global footprint. In the past year alone, the company opened its first showroom in Dubai and significantly expanded its domestic presence with new showrooms in Pune and a franchise store in Surat. These initiatives underscore the brand's commitment to providing unparalleled quality and service while meeting the growing demand for luxury home decor solutions.
The Chelsea Harbour store will feature an exclusive range of hand-knotted rugs and carpets, showcasing both traditional and contemporary designs that reflect Jaipur Rugs’ dedication to artisanal excellence and timeless elegance. Customers visiting the store can expect a curated shopping experience combining heritage craftsmanship with modern aesthetics, ensuring each piece is a testament to artistry and functionality. The 331.1 sqm space is positioned in London’s renowned design destination, the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour. Heavily inspired by the illustrious Pink City, where Jaipur Rugs was founded, the showroom is designed to capture and convey Jaipur’s innate elegance and grace, as well as the triumphant and vibrant spirit that it permeates.
The entrance unfolds onto a strikingly modern, black and white diamond-patterned floor, setting the stage for an immersive experience. Upon entering the store, visitors are immediately transported through an archway and are bathed in an enveloping palette of pink and white, adorned with delicate hand-painted linework. A restrained colour palette dresses the interiors, predominantly featuring a matte finish, a deliberate minimal choice that ensures the vibrant hues of the rugs and carpets take centre stage. This backdrop also elegantly highlights Jaipur's rich heritage through various historic furniture design pieces and objects.
The minimalist approach creates a space where the textures, colours and stories of Jaipur's legacy remain the focal point, allowing each rug to weave a narrative of resilience, tradition and cultural richness throughout the showroom. The newly completed Jaipur Rugs London showroom embodies the brand and serves as a physical testament to the company's ethos. As Jaipur Rugs continues to redefine luxury in the global marketplace, the opening of its London store represents a significant achievement and a testament to the brand's enduring commitment to craftsmanship and customer satisfaction.
