Osman was incredibly helpful and patient with us in choosing the perfect rug for our home. We had the opportunity to see how Osman’s rugs are made - the quality is incomparable to the many other rugs we’ve looked at in America and in Turkey! And the price was very affordable. Once we made our selection, Osman packaged the rug up for easy handling during our long trip back to Texas (U.S.A.). Our time with Osman will forever be in our memories and a highlight of our time in Turkey!

We cannot say enough nice things about Osman and Can Carpet. We visited this amazing shop in June 2023 and were treated to a wonderul meal, great conversation and a tour of the facility. Osman was wonderful and treated us like family. Osman showed us many carpets and we eneded up taking one home. For the next few months, we talked about some of the other beautiful carpets we had seen. We ended up buying two additional carpets last month and Osman was so helpful in sending pictures/measurements and so many options. We are so proud to now have 5 extraordinary carpets from Can Carpet in our home. If you are anywhere near Selcuk, you have to stop in to meet Osman and see his wonderul shop. Thank you Osman!

A hidden gem of art weaving was waiting for us to be discovered in a small village not far from Ephesus. There was a garden with a mulberry tree with branches full of fruit ready to be grabbed and eaten. We were warmly welcomed by the owner who showed us how traditional kilims and carpets are hand made from the moment the wool is cleaned, then dyed and prepared for weaving to the actual end product. I greatly admire the preservation of the weaving traditions that ensure the quality and long lasting beauty of these carpets. I warmly suggest to visit a Can Carpet factory. You will not regret it!

We had such a warm welcome from Osman Can, his carpet workshop is amazing! He took the time to show me all about the natural dyes they use, the traditional methods, and even made an indigo vat while I was there to demonstrate their methods. I am a keen hand-dyer for yarns, so this was paradise. Even my husband was impressed. Osman is reviving centuries old designs, getting them digitised, then training his workers to make traditional rugs to bring the originals to life. All done with solar power, conserving water, and giving his workforce a secure future. And of course we bought a lovely original carpet!

Osman was wonderful! He welcomed me and my family into his home. When we were done eating he gave us a grand tour of his facilities, including how they make hand made rugs! It was so cool, I had never seen anything like it. My father-in-law was so impressed he ended up buying a rug. I just want to say that Osman is a friendly and kind man who works hard and is happy to show people around. We were giving the Turkish royal welcome. Thanks again, Osman!
