At Bakhtiyar we like to stay at the forefront of technology and to find ways to continue to innovate our industry. In keeping with this we have decided to start accepting the major crypto currencies as a payment option for our rugs, runners & kelims, both in-store and online.
So if you would like a new Persian rug to adorn your home and want to pay with Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano, BNIB or other currencies please feel free to contact us for payment options.
It’s not very often that you have the chance to not only buy back the first carpet you ever sold but also be able to keep it on display in your London showroom. Thankfully, for us, both of these circumstances are true!
