About Us

After graduating college on the west coast, Main Street Oriental Rugs owner, Mojan Bagha, took a job selling rugs for a large department store and found a great passion for the rich and vast history of handmade, artisan Oriental rugs. Mr. Bagha would go on to start his own rug business, where he traveled to different cities, states, and countries, cherry-picking the best rugs and selling these rugs to home stores and interior designers.

Eventually, settling in Maryland, Mr. Bagha opened his retail shop in Historic Ellicott City to display his grand rug collection and offer expert rug cleaning and rug repair services.

Now, having acquired over 35 years of experience, Mr. Bagha enjoys sharing his knowledge about fine, hand-crafted rugs, introducing the culture of the Orient to the occident, hoping to create a better understanding of the artform of handmade rugs that began many centuries ago.

Mr. Bagha believes in fair-trade, which benefits everyone: weavers, rug merchants, and you, the consumer.
