“We have been fortunate to have met Celia at the Bryanston Organic Market to give us expert advice on our carpets from Iran, Pakistan, India, China and Turkey. Over a period of several months we had all of them beautifully cleaned and mended by Celia within a short space of time and at reasonable prices. It’s a pleasure to work with a knowledgeable and reliable person who is passionate about what they do. We can confidently recommend Celia to anyone who loves carpets and seeks advice on how to maintain and restore them” - Sandy and Eddie Kostlin
