Portland Showroom

The Portland Showroom has moved to the historical Pearl District in Portland, Oregon.  Located on the corner of 10th and Glisan with an 8,000 square foot showroom, Tufenkian offers the design community an exciting and convenient shopping experience.

All of Tufenkian’s carpet designs are deeply rooted in artisan and cultural traditions while simultaneously focusing one eye on the unexpected.  New this season is a selection of styles characterized by bold colors and large-scale graphic design.  In addition to its Core Tibetan and Armenian lines, Tufenkian offers the Designers' Reserve Collection, a collaboration between James Tufenkian and designers such as Barbara Barry, Mark Pollack, Kevin Walz, and Vicente Wolf. 

The Showroom's inviting environment and knowledgeable staff make it easy to select a carpet for immediate delivery or to design custom rugs for your clients. A full range of contract, residential and hospitality services are offered.

Additionally, located next door is the new Tufenkian Archive Store – the outlet center for classic Tufenkian Artisan Carpets, samples, and special purchases from around the world.  These Tufenkian originals are available to designers and consumers at tremendous savings, 30-60% off retail prices every day, all year long.

Showroom hours: Monday - Friday 8:30 a.m. - 6 p.m;  Saturday 10:00a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
