After nearly 50 years in Sacramento, Mansour\u2019s Oriental Rug Gallery will be closing its Arden Arcade location, according to a member of the family-owned business.<\/p>\n
The closure is prompted by financial obstacles the business has faced, difficulty managing the business, and the death of the original owner Mansour Yaghoubian, according to his son, Edmond Yaghoubian. The business is expected to close by the end of May, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor nearly five decades, our showroom has welcomed generations of clients who cared about craftsmanship, beauty, and the meaning a home can hold,\u201d Edmond Yaghoubian wrote. \u201cOver those years, we have been grateful for the support of the Sacramento community…\u201d<\/p>\n
Mansour Yaghboubian, the CEO of Mansour\u2019s Oriental Rug Gallery, died from a sudden heart attack in 2022, his son said. Since his passing, the siblings have been carrying out their father\u2019s legacy. They described the business to have a \u201cfoundational role\u201d in the Sacramento community.<\/p>\n

Mansour\u2019s Oriental Rug Gallery opened in 1979, selling antique and handmade Oriental and Persian rugs, according to its website.<\/a> The gallery\u2019s rugs are made in countries such as India, China, Turkey and Pakistan.<\/p>\n The family has two store locations in the region, the one in Sacramento on 2550 Fair Oaks Boulevard and another in Roseville on 1113 Galleria Boulevard in the Westfield Galleria Mall. Yaghoubian said the Arden Arcade store is the only location shutting down.<\/p>\n As that store sees the end of its run, rugs will be sold at up to 50% off, according to Yaghoubian.<\/p>\n He said the shutdown is an emotional time, describing it as a \u201cone last opportunity for the community to step inside before the doors close.\u201d He said he and his family are \u201cextremely thankful.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe were able to go to people\u2019s homes and bring a lot of light and art,\u201d Yaghoubian said. \u201cTo meet such amazing people throughout all these decades, it brings positivity and light and into people\u2019s homes and hearts. It was just a pleasure to have done this business with everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n When speaking about the closure, he remembers his father, and his legacy, fondly.<\/p>\n Under his father\u2019s leadership, Yaghoubian said the gallery would volunteer and support organizations across Sacramento, including the Crocker Art Museum, Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and other philanthropic groups. He said his father was not only dedicated to bringing art into people\u2019s homes, but also supported the betterment of Sacramento.<\/p>\n \u201cHe left a very significant legacy in the Sacramento community,\u201d Yaghoubian said. \u201cHe would bring a lot of different groups together and be able to support (them) by sponsoring different projects and donating a lot…\u201d<\/p>\n The Roseville shop will be open until Monday, May 4, and then temporarily closed for the rest of the month.<\/p>\n A private pre-sale for discounted rugs will begin May 1 and end May 6 at the Sacramento store. The public can take advantage of discounted rugs beginning May 7. The rug gallery will be open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n Related Stories from Sacramento Bee<\/p>\n
