Owned and run by the kind Nabil and his family, Tribal Oriental Textiles has the most extensive…read morecollection of beautiful rugs and other textiles I have ever seen! I believe most of their rugs are Middle Eastern, including Persian rugs and Turkish rugs with a huge variety in color, pattern, style, and size. It is a treasure to have such a place owned by such warm people in the heart of Texas! I called before I made the trek from Austin to San Marcos and I'm glad I did, because they have recently moved. The address listed here on Yelp and on their website is incorrect, but the phone number listed on the website is correct, so I recommend calling first. It is still near San Marcos and not far from Austin. Here is a link to their website where the phone number is listed: http://tribalorientaltextiles.com/aboutus.htm I was greeted with warm tea (it is currently January) by Nabil and his wife and daughter when I arrived. They run the business out of their quaint and charming home on the outskirts of San Marcos. I described to them the style and size I was looking for and told them my budget and they pulled beautiful rug after beautiful rug until I selected a beautiful Kilim. I absolutely love my new rug and feel I got it for a fair and affordable price. I highly recommend Tribal Oriental Textiles if you are looking for something high quality, handmade, and one of a kind.

Tribal Oriental Textiles has an extraordinary collection of handmade rugs from around the world,…read moreeach one of which is unique. My girlfriend and I ended our long search for the perfect rug here, where we found a vibrant hand-dyed Kilim that is now the centerpiece of our living room. The showroom is a little out of the way, as the owner Nabil lives on a ranch with his collection of rugs and Arabian horses. However, the rugs here are well worth the drive, and the prices are probably better than you will find anywhere unless you travel to the tribal regions yourself. Nabil treated us with genuine warmth and hospitality, which we are reminded of each time we walk into our living room. If you are in the market for a tribal rug, this is the place to go.

The value was ok some of the items were a bit on the high side and most of the furniture I could see myself having to strip white paint from so I passed on it.

I went in looking for chess pieces for a chess board but they only had one and it didn't match the board. If you are looking for unique pieces varying from jewelry to planters this is a great place to stop in add a touch of a different time to your home. The owner is very friendly and will help you find whatever you are looking for. Keep in mind this is an antique shop, not a thrift shop so some of the prices are higher but still on the moderate side.

I have been here twice before, and both times were great experiences. The first time I went to have…read morea frame repaired and have a portrait dry mounted. The portrait was a chalk drawing of me from 1973. So we're already dealing with something that's almost 50 years old. The proprietor was very professional and let me know what I could expect regarding this portrait. He made a lot of explanations to me that made sense, and put me at ease that he knew what he was talking about. When I went to pick up the frame, he had repaired it beautifully and replaced the glass and the picture looked great. He wasn't really happy with it however, because of the paper and how it can stretch when you're drawing on it and then when you dry mount it, it can kind of shrink back down. I hope that makes sense. Anyway, he wasn't really satisfied with the outcome and he ended up not charging me. I returned to him later with three silk screened drawings that I got from an artist in New Orleans. We discussed the frames and the different types of glass, and I was really happy with the results. Please see the pictures attached. I returned to him a third time with another project which I'm picking up tomorrow. And I will be dropping off another project for him. Go here if you need a local artist to frame your art. You will not be disappointed.

My mother was even laughing as we looked at some of the prices. No wonder we were the only people there. As an example there were extremely dilapidated screen doors outside marked $125. Seriously... I've seen these EXACT same doors at other places for $10. Just ridiculous. On a positive note, the lady working there was friendly. Obviously they just don't know market prices.
