Lawrence of La Brea sets the stage for individual style. Fine rugs and exotic textiles are the heart of our talent, apparent in our vast selection from around the world. We collaborate with and are inspired by the international interior and fashion design community. In addition to beautiful rugs, we provide expert care in installation, restoration, cleaning, and appraisal services.

We believe a patterned rug is not just a decoration. It’s a way of life – and a powerful expression of an individual’s personality. Lawrence of La Brea strives, at all times, to deliver the most rare and extraordinary rugs to our customers. We will source any design or custom look and work with our vast manufacturing resources to achieve the desired result.
