Berkeley Oriental Rug Cleaning
Talisman has been the #1 rug cleaning company in Berkeley for over 32 years.
Talisman
has cleaned a variety of valuable textiles from Berkeley public
institutions - including an antique Thai banner for the UC Berkeley Art
Museum and area carpets custom designed by former UC Berkeley Art
Department head Christopher Brown.
A unique, world-class Oriental
rug collection is owned by famed Berkeley architect Christopher
Alexander. The founders of Talisman have known Mr. Alexander since the
60's and assisted in cleaning and conserving rugs for his highly praised
exhibit at the De Young Museum in 1990 - to coincide with the
International Conference on Oriental Rugs. Talisman also prepared the
entire collection for shipment when it was eventually transferred to the
UK and advised Mr. Alexander on proper storage.
When Talisman began in 1980, one of our first clients was Emmett Eiland Oriental Rug Company in Berkeley - which was then located just off upper Solano Ave. 32
years later, Talisman and EEORC are still good friends and associates.
Talisman unhesitatingly recommends Emmett Eiland Oriental Rugs for their
integrity, expert knowledge, fine selection and reliable customer
service. EEORC is a Berkeley institution that the city can rightly be
proud of. Rugs taken to EEORC for cleaning will be hand cleaned at
Talisman.
