Our story

What began in 1977 as the vision of our founder and beloved grandfather, Mr Rasheed-ud-din Ansari, has evolved into a legacy defined by craftsmanship, passion and dedication. An artisan at heart, he recognised the profound appreciation people held for the beauty and character of handmade rugs. Inspired by this realisation, he devoted himself to preserving and advancing an art form that has been cherished for generations.

Guided by an unwavering commitment to excellence and a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship, he immersed himself in the world of handmade rugs. Through perseverance and an enduring belief in the value of artisanal work, he established National Art Floor Fabrics, a legacy that continues today as National Art Company.

His vision still inspires the third generation of our family. With nearly five decades of expertise shaping our journey, we continue to honour our heritage while embracing contemporary design sensibilities. As our journey unfolds, we remain committed to the values on which our legacy was built: authenticity, quality and an enduring passion for the art of handmade rugs.

Our purpose

Our purpose

At National Art Company, we invite you to experience art not just as something to admire, but as something to feel. Each rug we craft carries a spirit of its own, becoming a timeless expression of artistry. Through master craftsmanship, distinctive design and superior materials, we create pieces that transcend decoration, bringing warmth, depth and individuality to a space while reflecting cultural richness in every weave.

Each pattern, colour and texture tells a story that gently stirs the senses and opens the door to new perspectives. We believe that art speaks a universal language, one that transcends time, culture and words. It invites us to pause, reflect and reconnect with ourselves and the world around us.

With this belief at heart, we encourage you to welcome art into your life. National Art Company reimagines your space as more than a setting; it becomes a living canvas where heritage and modernity come together and where every handcrafted rug is designed to elevate your emotions, adding depth, warmth and a lasting sense of belonging.
